Sightseeing

Wonderful Mayan ruins to visit, closer to Playa del Carmen than Chichen Itza. Although not as big and as popular, these ruins are stunning and built right on the cliffs of the Caribbean sea! Highly recommend getting a guide when you go.

Parks & Nature

Big and beautiful natural water park. Eco-friendly. Touristy and costly, but great way to spend the day with the family or large group. Great show at the end of your visit to the park.

Really nice new shopping area, a bit more high end like Michael Kors and Coach, etc. but you'll still find H&M nearby, Bath and Body Works, Victoria's Secret, Starbucks, Sephora, etc. also lined with cafes and restaurants nearby.
