An iconic sculpture in downtown Playa del Carmen. This sculpture is surrounded by so many shops and restaurants and we highly encourage everyone to make a trip into town for shopping and a good bite. If you want to explore this area further, check out "Quinta Avienda" aka 5th Avenue.
Cozumel is a popular cruise stop for many reasons. The downtown area is filled with good restaurants, shops, and beautiful views. If you decide to venture across to the island, we highly suggest you take the opportunity to eat at Pancho's Backyard. Fun facts: Pancho's Backyard is where Kylie had her first 'legal' margarita [Kylie didn't drink nearly enough to discover her alcohol intolerance] and Cozumel is where Mark ran across the island to buy Kylie the opal ring she really liked, only for her to lose it upon return to the states.
If you are up for an adventure, we highly suggest looking on Trip Advisor for an excursion to take you to swim in cenotes. Cenotes are naturally occurring bodies of fresh water, usually in a cave. The water is crisp and incredibly clear.
