Things To Do
CHICHÉN ITZÁ
Chichén Itzá is a complex of Mayan ruins on Mexico's Yucatán Peninsula. A massive step pyramid, known as El Castillo or Temple of Kukulcan, dominates the ancient city, which thrived from around 600 A.D. to the 1200s. Graphic stone carvings survive at structures like the ball court, Temple of the Warriors and the Wall of the Skulls. Nightly sound-and-light shows illuminate the buildings' sophisticated geometry.
ISLA MUJERES
Isla Mujeres is a Mexican island in the Caribbean Sea, 8 miles off the coast from Cancún. It's a vacation destination known for beaches such as northern Playa Norte, and for snorkeling and scuba diving on the surrounding coral reefs. At Punta Sur, the southern tip, there's a lighthouse, the remains of a Mayan temple and a sanctuary for sea turtles.
COCO BONGO

QUINTA AVENIDA (FIFTH AVENUE)/PLAYA DEL CARMEN
The pedestrian-only Quinta Avenida (Fifth Avenue) runs parallel to the ocean in downtown Playa del Carmen. This bustling tourist strip provides easy beach access and is within walking distance of shops, restaurants, bars, and clubs. Lining Fifth Avenue are shops aplenty, including those selling artisan crafts, fine jewelry, and cigars.
TULUM RUINS
Tulum was the last great city constructed and inhabited by the Mayan people between the thirteenth and fifteenth centuries. It was a site of worship to the Great Descending God whose image adorns the temples within the site. Tulum was also of great importance for sea trade, most specifically for the trading of obsidian. Tribes from all over Mexico and other Central American countries would travel here for commerce. It’s said that the great wall around the city was erected to protect it from envious traders and pirates who wanted to steal the prime location for themselves.
CENOTE SIETE BOCAS
Siete Bocas translated means the ‘Seven Mouths’ or in the case of this cenote means seven different small entrances into the underground river. This cenote is very different from other cenotes. Each entrance is small, some with steps or ladders where visitors can climb into the cenote and cavern system, or there is just an opening where you can jump into the water. You will find this location fun both above ground and underground. It is a perfect location for a lazy day with a picnic, your swimsuit and a group of friends. This is a swimming cenote but if you are adventurous bring your own snorkel gear and check out what is under the water. There are few services but lots of tables and small palapas for a picnic. Bring your own food and drinks. Explore the jungle, the local plants and trees, enjoy the quiet and chill for the day or an afternoon.
