Akumal diving

Getting close to a trip to Akumal (middle of Jan 2006) can anybody fill me
in as to the conditions after the Hurricane? What am I to expect for water
temp for diving and/or snorkeling? We probably won't make the trip over to
Coz.

Thanks,Graham

As far as I can tell, the hotels and such in akumal are ok. They have
electricity, and did not suffer much damage. I am going there the end
of next week, and will post a report once I see the place.

We just returned from a week in Akumal. Everything is open, and the
shops are operating. They worked furiously to get a new palapa roof on
the bar at Lol Ha in time for Christmas.

All of the billboards on Rt 307 are gone, and the signs at Taj Mahal
and Choc Mool are gone, so if you don't know where they are, you won't
find them.

We were cave diving and didn't go in the ocean. One of the boat
captains told me the water was 84, but I'm skeptical. I would plan on
78 and be happy if it was warmer.

Roatan varied from 79 to 81 last week.

I confirm : Chack Mool is OK
