Where your money actually goes.
Not a resort activity desk. A kitchen, a beekeeper, a boat, and the people who run them.
Every operator says they support local communities.
So here are the names instead. When you book a day, most of what you pay leaves my hands the same week and goes to these people, in cash, at the door.
Doña Mari
Cochinita and tortillas by hand, on a comal over wood. She opens at seven and she is out by ten, which is why we go early.
Don Efra
Meliponas, the stingless bees the Maya have kept for a thousand years. The honey tastes like nothing you have had.
The boat guys at the coast
Two brothers, one panga, no website. If you go out on the water with me, you go out with them.
This page grows. Everyone here gets asked before their photo and their name go up, and everyone here gets paid the same whether you book or not.
Tell me what you love.
I’ll build the day.
No forms full of questions you don’t care about. Four quick things, and then I write back myself, usually within a couple of hours.
