I was just in that area for the second time a couple weeks ago. I also went to Xel-Ha for the first time. There was decent snorkeling there with big groupers, barracudas, and rays, but I didn't see any turtles. Unfortunately, the cove got kinda cloudy by the afternoon due to all the people stirring up sand and such.

Some resorts have nice coves where you can find sea turtles but, if not, definitely go on a snorkeling excursion to see some sea turtles. You'll probably find a dive shop or two on that resort that can set something up for you.

I've gone diving in the area too but there's often more interesting stuff to see closer to the shore so you can have just as much fun snorkeling.

Hide a bun or two in a zip-lock bag and pull it out to feed the fishes when you're in the open water. They'll follow you around afterwards. Makes for good video too!

Be careful though. The chubbs may bite your fingers.
