Tulum

Tulum is one of Mexico’s coolest beach towns, where brightly-colored posadas line powder-white beaches and boho-chic cafes look out upon the Caribbean Sea. A trip to this seaside town takes you back to simpler times. A time when people rode around on bicycles and when only candles and starlight lit up the night. Tulum’s charming ruggedness and unshakeable eco-centric lifestyle is what continues to make it one of the best, untouched beach spots of today.

Spend your days relaxing on pristine beaches found all along the Boca Paila – Playa Paraíso being the most popular of Tulum’s beaches for its long stretches of sand and calm tides. Mixleisure and history with a visit to the cliff-top Tulum Ruins – an interesting display of Tulum as a pre-Columbian Mayan city. Don’t leave Tulum without reveling in all its natural wonder –explore its magical cenotes and experience the Mexican wilderness at Sian Ka’an Biosphere.
