Situated on Mexico’s Caribbean coast, just 42 miles south of Cancun, Playa del Carmen is a long way away from the hard-partying ways of its northerly neighbor. That’s not to say that there’s no fun to be had here, but white-sand beaches, eco-parks, and nearby Mayan ruins are what this place is all about.
Powdery beaches, great diving and snorkeling among protected reefs, must-see Mayan ruins, and eco-adventures in nearby jungles and parks.
