CEA helps preserve Yal Ku Lagoon

From an article in the Sac-Be newsletter:

Yal Ku Lagoon is a gem to be treasured with a vibrant eco-system supporting a wide variety of tropical fish, coral, and plants.

Many of the owners are doing their part to see that the lagoon area is protected so that it will remain viable for generations to come. They are working closely with CEA (the Akumal Ecological Center).

According to Paul Sachez-Navarro, CEA's Director, "The experience with the local property owners in North Akumal has been wonderful. We've had several meetings to identify Yal Ku management issues, define conservation objectives and work to identify specific actions that can be taken to improve tourism use of this incredible freshwater outlet."

"Yal Ku is the northern-most part of the region of Akumal that we are working to protect. CEA is working with each bay in Akumal to define local management programs that will help us to protect the entire coastal marine ecosystem of Akumal."
