4 Things You Don't Want to Miss in Riviera Maya Mexico

The Riviera Maya lies just an hour from the Cancun International Airport. The area is full of friendly locals, beachfront restaurants, and hotels that range from luxurious to modest in price. It's one of Mexico's best-kept secrets, with fabulous views of the jungle and ocean.

Here are the top things to do on the Mayan Riviera:

Discover Grupo Xcaret:

Visitors to the Mayan Riviera can enjoy a vacation that combines adventure with history and culture. Adventure parks associated with Grupo Xcaret provide deep dives into both.

The Mexican-run company Grupo Xcaret has nine adventure and cultural theme parks along the Mayan Riviera. The original, Xcaret, highlights the region's history and culture, as well as Mayan traditions. You can visit the Butterfly Pavilion or Coral Reef Aquarium, sample regional dishes native to the region, and see the Xcaret Mexico Espectacular performance—a dance-and-music show featuring traditional Mayan music and dance.

Explore the Ruins of Coba:

The city of Coba is one of the largest Mayan cities in the Yucatan peninsula, and it's home to the largest network of stone causeways (raised stone roads) in the known Mayan world. The Ixmoja temple is Coba's tallest pyramid, and it offers great views of the surrounding jungle. You'll have far fewer crowds at Coba than at other destinations like Chichen Itza or Tulum.

Explore Rio Secreto:

Tourists visiting the Mayan Riviera can look forward to an activity unlike any other with the Rio Secreto tour. This underground cave system reveals a history that dates back millennia, making it one of the best-kept secrets on the coast. If you're interested in cave exploration and want to learn more about the region's geological history as well as its use by the ancient Mayan people, visit Rio Secreto today! 

Sail to Cozumel:

When you're in Playa del Carmen, it's worth taking a ferry to Cozumel. It's one of the largest islands in Mexico, and it's well known for being a popular cruise ship port. Much of the island is protected by the government and remains undeveloped. You can rent electric bikes or scooters to explore the gorgeous beaches.
