Costa Mujeres tourist guide - Cancun

The new pearl of the Mexican Caribbean is waiting for you: white beaches and turquoise water in an almost virgin area north of Cancun. But first, how about a few tricks to make your trip unforgettable?

The Costa Mujeres region is recognized throughout the world for its spectacular beaches, its fascinating sea of calm waters and its unmatched climate. It also has a fine network of roads and highways that facilitate travel from Merida and Cancun, and a first-class hotel infrastructure that places it as one of the world’s best tourist destinations.

Beyond its island paradises such as Holbox or Isla Mujeres, the Mayan Caribbean offers endless interesting suggestions that include nature, tradition and culture. Just 500 meters from the coast is the Great Mayan Reef, the second largest barrier reef in the world, perfect for diving and discovering the enormous biodiversity of the area. The more adventurous can tour the mangroves, sail the crystal-clear waters of the Cuevas del Río Secreto or practice rappelling and zip lining in a natural park. You can also enjoy a refreshing swim in the spectacular cenotes, natural pools very close to the most emblematic archaeological centers, especially Chichén Itzá or Ek Balam.
