Yes, now you can tell your friends that a weasel has been to Hell. It's a coral formation from hundreds of years ago that has now been exploited into a tourist trap. You can send a postcard marked from "Hell" here, and you can buy a "I've been to Hell and back" t-shirt at the neighboring shop.

Costa Maya is pretty much a pier with shopping and drinks, built exclusively for cruise ships.

Just down the road from the Costa Maya pier about two miles is the small fishing village of Mahajual. This is where we spent most of our day on the beach. The water here is so blue – it's just like one of those Corona commercials.
