Wow - Carmen has changed an awful lots since then! That was when I first went there. We fell in love with it immediately almost packed it in and moved there. I sort of wish we had, but then the change would have been hard to watch. I remember a girl at the topas bar who was packing it in to head to Bluefields or Roatan . . .

Welcome to CF Matt!

If you know Buceo Cyan Ha tell Carlos hi for me. What do you do in Playa? It certainly has changed, I started going there in '81 when Quinta Avenida was a dirt trail...Lots of fond memories!

Hello Matt, I am planning a trip to Playa Del Carmen in November. I am trying to find information to charter (bareboat) a 40 - 50 boat for 3 or 4 nights.
Can you help point me in the right direction? Most websites I have found are just for snorkeling 3 hours type cruises.
Thank you,
Wendy from Ottawa, Canada

Hello Matt, I am a new sailor, too, here in Playa since 2000... I took initial sailing lessons in Puerto Aventuras with Armando and the 101's in Sarasota.. I can't find too much sailing here, if you do, I would be interested to crew up...
