Sargassum Along the Shore at Iberostar Selection Riviera Cancún

Iberostar Selection Riviera Cancún sits along the Riviera Maya coastline south of Cancún, part of the Iberostar Hotels & Resorts chain. The all-inclusive property lines its stretch of Caribbean beach with thatched-roof palapas and lounge chairs for guest use. Sargassum, a seaweed that has affected much of the Mexican Caribbean coast in recent years, regularly washes up along this shoreline. The resort is one of several Iberostar properties clustered along this section of the Riviera Maya, a coastal corridor stretching roughly 80 miles from Cancún to Tulum.
