We went last year to Akumal and I noticed, just like you, that the forums just don't talk about shore fishing. Either is charter boat fishing or fly fishing down in Sian Kaan. I did fish from the shore a little, but the only surf fishing I have ever done has been for stripers and bluefish in Southern Virginia and North Carolina--I quickly learned that Mexico is a whole different deal. I did catch a grunt up in akumal and a tiny little snapper down at Boca Paila. How far were you able to cast out? That was a big problem for me in that there was a lot of wind and anything heavy enough to cast into the wind was probably way, way too big for the smaller reef fish. Did catch some big ole' cudas out on the boat.
