We do not need to know much to know that the Maya chose where to live well. No wonder that today, his former backyard privileged became inexhaustible source for luxury tourism in Mexico. And gave up a fancy name for the region: Riviera Maya. The relentless beauty of the coast is really lovely, for those who can afford the luxury or not. É um lugar imperdível aos amantes das praias.

It's easy to understand why the area eyes shines when it comes to tourism. The beaches of white sand and blue water which in itself would be paradise, are backed up by a very generous nature, both the interior of the continent to the sea. The entire coast of the Riviera Maya is accompanied by Barrier Reef System Mesoamerican, the second largest in the world after the Great Barrier Reef of Australia, which makes her not only beautiful underwater world, as full of animal life. Moreover, a região é repleta de cenotes e próxima a diversas ruínas da civilização maia.

Pela Carretera Federal 307, down the coast from Cancun. The first stop was the charming Playa del Carmen. The beach is full of bars on your surroundings and not difficult to find a lounge chair to enjoy a delicious diazinho beach. As no other Riviera Maya gives, prices are for gringo and somewhat salty in the busiest parts of the city. We are to find a coconut most expensive we found there, where a bar charged 90 weights (about R $ 15) por um único coquinho verde gelado.

Many tourists in the ruins

Amid the alleys of downtown, there are some options for cheap hotels and restaurants. We find an Argentine who had a great food at a price most just, o The grill Manolo. Sleeping saving, send good ol 'chat of carretera ", para convencer os gerentes de um hotel à beira da estrada nos deixar dormir no estacionamento em nossas barracas com a Tanajura.

A spin by "Quinta Avenida" of Playa del Carmen is also delicious. As our trip is over rootz, we just walk in and a sorvetinho (that was expensive!). But for those who like, there are several designer shops and restaurants that looked very good. The nightlife in the region seemed quite busy and also was chic. After the mad revelers in Cancun, preferimos deixar essas passarem.

We follow with Tanajura further south in a cozy stop in Akumal beach. Here's the deal dip! The sea is full of turtles and do not need to hire any tour package to dive and find the animals with their own gear. We spent an afternoon at the beach sexy, acompanhando as tartarugas e diversos peixes que encontrávamos no mar.

Nothing like walking on the beach without commitment

Further south of the Riviera Maya is the beach like that over this entire path, Tulum. It is not only the most photogenic Mayan ruins of the Yucatan Peninsula all that is done the city. Tulum has a long stretch of beach, delicious for those who like to enjoy the beach a good, à vista do mar azul do Caribe e longe de uma infraestrutura urbana.

We camped in the area of ​​Fisherman's Beach, no Camping Santa Fe. The structure of hoteizinhos and campsites nearby was quite simple, but do not need much more to enjoy the place. Electrical energy is the basis of generators on the beach, then time or another light was not available or no water had been pumped into the water tank. But okay, the beauty and tranquility of the place compensates, and very!

We liked the place so much that one of the comings and goings of Cancun, escaped there for a few more days. The truth is that we could spend days and days enjoying the beaches of the Riviera Maya quietly, but the journey continues! There was still plenty to explore in the Yucatan Peninsula! We went to the North, atrás de Mérida e das famosas ruínas de Chichén Itzá.
