Half Moon Bay is located in the middle of North Akumal. HMB begins about 1 km (.6 mile) north of Akumal Centro and adjoins Yalku Lagoon to the north. It's a quiet residential area with private residences but predominatley condos. As the name implies, it is a curved bay with a largely sandy shoreline. The Mesoamerican reef system acts as a natural barrier, with the Caribbean waves breaking off shore at both ends of the bay. The snorkeling in the north end is some of the best in Akumal. Turtles are a common site and an abundance of fish in the clear Caribbean water are easily observed. There are seldom more that a dozen snorkelers at any one time in the entire bay.

There are restaurants, convenience stores and a human watering hole or two. HMB is a peaceful and quiet neighborhood and like all Akumal beachfront areas, the beach road is not a through roadway. Therefore there is little automotive traffic and the most popular modes of transportation are walking, bicycles and golf carts.
