Playa del Carmen, a small lively town in Quintana Roo, is located just 40 minutes south of Cancun. The beach is white and wide, and is lined by small hotels, shops and restaurants. The inner town boasts a full range of yet more shops and fine restaurants, and is a delight to explore.

Playa del Carmen offers just about any recreational activity you might want. Relax on the beach, scuba dive among the reefs, fish for marlin, swim in the cenote (limestone) caverns, or go bird-watching in the tropical jungle.

Enjoy shopping in Playa del Carmen, or take a short trip to Xcaret or the Mayan ruins at Chichen Itza and Tulum. Visit famous Cozumel Island easily by boarding the ferry at Playa del Carmen's central plaza.
