Riviera Maya
The Riviera Maya, south of Cancun, has white sandy beaches, coral reefs, Mayan ruins, and lush tropical foliage set against the brilliant blue-green Caribbean. The area offers swimming, snorkeling, and diving. If you prefer dry land, the platforms above the shore of Xel-Há (Shell-ha) provide an excellent view of the sealife. Playa del Carmen has restaurants and open-air shops along the waterfront. Xcaret (Sh-kar-et) combines interesting ruins with beautiful coves, inlets, and an underground river. The Riviera Maya is an ideal destination for vacationers who love the outdoors, tranquility, and a quiet vacation alternative to faster-paced Cancún.
Shopping
In the Riviera Maya, you will find a variety of shopping options. Browse the outdoor markets packed with traditional Mexican crafts and shop the interesting boutiques along the main avenues. Expect to bargain at the markets; stores, however, usually have fixed prices.
Shopping hours are generally weekdays 10:00 am – 2:00 pm and 4:00 pm – 7:00 pm, but many stores choose to stay open during the siesta hours from 2:00 pm – 4:00 pm. On Saturdays and Sundays, many shops are only open in the mornings.
Sport Fishing
Sport fishing is one of the biggest attractions in the area and the waters off the coast of the Riviera Maya are famous worldwide as one of the best hotspots for sailfish and marlin. Peak fishing season runs from early March through early July when sailfish and marlin are migrating through the deep-water channel between the Yucatan Coast and the island of Cozumel.
Snorkeling and Scuba Diving
Bordered by the second largest reef in the world and home to more than 500 species of fish and many turtles, Riviera Maya’s Great Maya Reef offers some of the most spectacular reef diving in the Western Hemisphere. Its 13 marked dive sites beckon novice and experienced divers alike.
