Without a doubt when we think about vacations, the first thing that comes to our mind is a paradisiacal image of a beach. We see ourselves enjoying tropical weather, sunbathing, snorkeling,
shopping and even maybe relaxing at a spa. But where can we find all of these things in the same place? The answer is: The Riviera Maya.
- The world's best beaches: Comprised of a coastal strip of over 100 miles (160 km), featuring numerous white-sanded beaches and turquoise colored sea.
- Weather: Average yearly temperature is 78F (26C) climbing up to 95F (35C) during the summer months.
- Sinkholes: Cenotes, (a sinkhole in Spanish) are geographical depressions filled with underground water that produce a deep pond. The water in a sinkhole is sweet and drinkable, fresh, crystal-clear and make for an ideal option for swimming and snorkeling.
- Mayan Vestiges: In the better part of the Riviera Maya flourished the Mayan Culture, so visiting the many archaeological sites enriches one's vacation.
- Excellent place for snorkeling and diving: Home of the second largest coral reef chain in America, it offers multiple opportunities to see, learn about and experience marine life.
- Sports options: Whether you prefer land or water sports, the Riviera Maya offers something for everybody: wave runners, speedboats, parasailing, zip lining trough the jungle and ATVs.
- Spas: Did you know that the Riviera Maya is the leader destination in Spas? Every year, over 10.7 million people visit the luxurious facilities and enjoy the relaxing treatments offered in over 100 spas located in the area.
