You may consider taking the ferry over to Cozumel for a day trip to visit Chankanaab Park which has the best snorkeling this side of heaven. Know that cab fares in Cozumel are abusive so taxis from the ferry dock to Chankanaab are high by Cancun standards.
Another side trip to consider is Aktun Chen (did someone just say 'God bless you') No I didn' sneeze. This is the name of a nature park with stalgmites and stalacites in the cave . You'll find Aktun Chen between Akumal and Xel-Ha not far from Playa del Carmen. When you ask directions and someone replies 'God bless you', just say thanks.
