  • Great place to watch a sunrise. and typically not very busy with tourist and ferry traffic first thing in the morning. Throughout the day a lot of activities are going and the beach can get crowded...

  • Playa del Carmen is to be chosen over Cancun. Though it is filled with tourists certain times of year, if you go out exploring of town there are some wonderful little experiences, sites, and people to enjoy. Walk the southern part of the beach and it is very secluded with virtually no wrinkled old grey fat people to disturb the natural beauty. On the northern part of the beach you may be invited by some friendly local fisherman having a bonfire on the beach to enjoy their recent catch. Definitely take the boat over to Cozumel and rent a motorcycle for the day!
  • Nice beach compared to other spots that are very tiny and full of sea weed..this beach is maintained much better. Came early to beat crowds, limited spots of shade but there is some. Beach volleyball courts are there as well.
