Dear Noonsite

Have just been to the town of Porto Morelos in Yucatan and some update for your page.

There is now a no anchor area between the ferry dock and the town quay to the north. This is off set by there being 5 free yellow mooring buoys 50ft from the end of the town quay.

There is a well marked channel through the reef in to the ferry dock area and the town quay is 1/2 mile north of the quay.

The town is quiet but diving-led tourism is on the increase, and seems to be well managed and controlled.

Food is safe to eat as many restaurants use "Purified Water" to prepare all items that need to be washed.

This town has not lost it's charm and can be enjoyed without many of the hassles of the more developed areas.

This information was accurate on the 30 Nov 09.
