Punta Allen is a small Mayan lobster fishing village located at the tip of the Boca Paila Peninsula. One side of the village borders the Caribbean, the other Ascension Bay.

Streets are lined with white sand, palm trees, and small charming homes. The coastline is pristine, scattered with fishing boats that transport the eager sports fishermen to the famous Flats Ascension Bay to fish.

Punta Allen's charm really lies in its simplicity. You won't find tourist buses, an array of shops, or air conditioned hotels. What you will find is an untouched oasis, a village where life goes on as it has for centuries. You'll find simple pleasures like watching incredible sunsets from the dock overlooking Ascension Bay.

Conveniences like several small grocery stores do exist, as well as a gas station, cantina and several restaurants.
