For those who love unspoiled nature, there are various ecological day-tours:
Sianka’an Biosphere, a natural park protected by Unesco, an amazing drive along
a strip of land that separates the lagoon and the sea, and that ends at Punta Allen,
a small fishermen’s village where lobster is the main staple!!
Rio Lagartos, an unpopulated and protected coast that is home to the largest
community of migratory birds in America.
Some ofthe most popular ecological Park of the Yucatan Penisula, are in a few
minutes far from Playa del Carmen, as Xel-Ha and the famous Xcaret.
Beautiful islands such as Holbox, Isla Mujeres and Cozumel, deserve to be seen.
Nearby natural reserves, hundreds of “Cenotes” (potholes with underground
rivers of
crystalline fresh water), and the possibility to try out the various
sports’ activities Playa del Carmen has to offer, such as sky-dive,
horseback riding, golf, and all water activities such as scuba diving,
snorkeling, windsurfing, catamaran sailing, water-ski, etc.
And how forghet the Mayan culture wich is present everywhere in the Yucatan
Peninsula, and there are even ruins in downtown Playa del Carmen!
Some of the most famous Mayan ruins are located at a perfect day trip distance
to Playa del Carmen, like Chichen Itza, Tulum, Ek-Balam and Coba.
Playa Del Carmen, is located on
the Riviera Maya, only a 50 minute
ride south of the
Cancun airport, and another 40
minutes south will get you to
Tulum. Playa is the largest town in
the Riviera Maya, having grown
extensively since being a
fisherman's village. After spending
the day on the white sand
beaches, or diving in the
cenotes, the locals and tourists
alike gather along 5th Avenue,
where you can find a variety of
cuisine, shops and night life.
Playa accommodates the young and
the not so young quite effortlessly.
We have found Playa Del
Carmen to have a wonderful cross
section of cultural backgrounds.
People from all over the world have
relocated here, including us. There
is something about this place that
you want to be a part of.
If you are
looking for the hustle and
bustle of
Cancun or Cozumel,
you will not
find it in Playa Del
Carmen.
