All photos were taken on one day at the beach that extends from Zubul Reef to the Porto Real Hotel by Charlie Channel, using a Canon G2 digital camera. Charlie is a Riviera Maya Today photo associate and friend and we thank him for his kind contribution to our efforts to bring the Riviera Maya a little closer to you.     Charlie set up before sunrise and took excellent photos of the awakening day.  Some of the shots were taken at or around the Zubul Reef Beach Bar that Riviera Maya Today highly recommends as a place to spend a beach day. The fellow sitting with the hat, a smile and cold XX cerveza is the owner Carlos Castillo. Carlos operated a windsurfing school in Cozumel before moving to Playa del Carmen.
