Cleaning of Playa Punta Esmeralda Playa covered with sargassum seaweed continue in Playa del Carmen. Sargassum continues to smother Playa del Carmen beaches causing issues and closures. Some beaches and beach cleaners are overwhelmed, however, officials are out cleaning on a daily basis. On Tuesday, 22 March 2022, in Playa Del Carmen, Quintana Roo, Mexico.
