| Playa del Carmen is one of the most attractive destinations in the Caribbean. Located in the heart of the Mayan Riviera, 68 km (42 mi) south of Cancun. At Playa del Carmen you will find beautiful beaches looking out on the Caribbean, which are ideal places to relax or do all kinds of water sports: snorkeling, windsurfing and kite surfing. For those who like scuba diving, there are exciting outings to the Great Mayan Reef, the second largest coral reef in the world. There you can dive at depths of more than 10 meters (33 feet) among multicolored fish and coral that has existed for more than 500 years. Come nightfall, we recommend that you take a stroll along Quinta Avenida, one of Playa del Carmen’s most happening areas. The avenue is lined with restaurants, bars, cosmopolitan nightclubs and a shopping mall with exclusive boutiques, clothing stores and jewelry shops. |
