Playa del Carmen Adventures

Playa del Carmen vacations provide unforgettable adventures for couples and families. You can dive and snorkel on a coral reef, walk on a deserted white sand beach, or climb an ancient Mayan temple. There are also numerous secluded areas throughout the Riviera Maya region for romantic getaways. Playa del Carmen is the perfect vacation destination.

Playa del Carmen was originally a small fishing town, and it did not take long for visitors to realize that it had some of the loveliest beaches and natural attractions in the world. Tourism started with the passenger ferry from Cancun, an island across the Cozumel Channel. Many visitors found Cozumel’s turquoise waters amazing and realized that its seclusion provided an excellent place to avoid the crowds of Cancun.  Since then, it has become one of the most popular vacation destinations in the world.

Playa del Carmen shopping can also be an adventure. Shopping activity centers on Quinta Avenida, or Cozumel’s Fifth Avenue, which is lined with hundreds of stores, bars and restaurants. Authentic Mexican food and exotic drinks are some of this area’s highlights. There are also many small boutique hotels on Fifth Avenue as well as on the beach. Bargains can be found on almost anything when shopping in this area.

Playa del Carmen hotels are usually very close to the popular attractions, pristine beaches and secluded retreats. They also offer some of the best amenities in the world. Playa del Carmen is the perfect destination for travelers who want to immerse themselves in Caribbean Mexico and turn their vacation into an unforgettable adventure.
