Want to say you saw the ruins, without devoting a whole day? Opt for Tulum. Set on a cliffside next to the turquoise ocean, the scenery will take your breathe away.
The Meso American Barrier Reef, the 2nd longest coral reef in the world, runs all along the coast of Mayan Riviera offering fabulous snorkelling and scuba diving. You can even snorkel with giant sea turtles.
