Unlock Mexico’s Hidden Coastal Gems: 15 Beach Towns You’ve Never Heard Of but Can’t Afford to Miss
3. Playa del Carmen
Playa del Carmen is my favorite beach destination on the Yucatan Peninsula. As far as coastal cities go, it’s a fairly big one with a lot of trendy restaurants and bars, and plenty of art galleries near the city center. Although the beaches aren’t as nice as they are in Tulum and Cancun, the reef diving and snorkeling here is excellent. You don’t have to go far offshore to encounter rays, moray eels, bright corals, and even sea turtles.
Playa del Carmen is also a quick visit to the ruins at Cozumel, Tulum, and Coba. If you’re as fascinated by Maya culture as I am, a day trip to one of these places is a must-do.
