Tulum, Mexico is about an hour and a half drive south
of the Cancun airport, and just 40 minutes
south of Playa del Carmen. With the Riviera Maya booming it is just a matter of
time before Tulum gets swept up in the gold rush. With international developers
like the Kor Group, and major residential developments like Kukulkan Residential Zone, Tulum will soon be a booming metropolis
with increased services, a more concrete infrastructure, and a more stable community; which in
turn guarantees investment and business longevity.
Home to one of the most visited archaeological sites in The Riviera Maya; Tulum has much to offer travelers from all walks of life, travel styles, and budgets.
There are pristine limestone beaches with the bright blue Caribbean Sea sparkling in the background that will
surely appeal to any beach dweller, sun
worshiper, or professional leisure
specialist. Tulum has coined the phrase "Eco Chic" to describe its laid back
beachy attitude, and its trend setting cabana style resorts. You can choose from
sand floored thatched roof cabanas, or go for the more upscale boutique hotels
sprinkled along the beaches.
The Pueblo,
or town, is located on highway 307 about a kilometer off the beach. There are
more and more services being offered as the town begins to flourish from the
massive influx of visitors and year round residents as well. There are cool little
restaurants, bars, and internet cafes popping up everywhere, as well as bigger
Mexican chains such as the grocery store, San
Francisco, the restaurant 100% Natural, and the
popular internet café El Point. Popular to kiteboarders you will often see the skies speckled with color on windy days as the adrenaline junkies fly high off
the coastline.
The entrance to Sian Kaan Biosphere Reserve is located only about 15 minutes from town, which boasts long stretches of deserted Caribbean beaches, and hundreds of different species of wild and plant life. Just an hour west of highway 307 is the archaeological site Coba, home to the tallest pyramid in the Yucatan (approximately 140 feet/ 42 meters). Nohoch Mul, meaning large hill, is not only the tallest pyramid in the region, but is one of the few that you are still able to climb.
The famous cenotes of the Riviera Maya are prevalent, in and around Tulum, and these amazing freshwater sinkholes are the entrance to one of the largest underground river systems in the world. From swimming holes, to, highly decorated caves, you can explore these natural wonders for days and never tire of them and divers from across the globe travel here to do just that. So not only does Tulum have some of the worlds most beautiful beaches, but it is also home to the sacred cenotes of the Maya, archaeological sites, protected parks, great food, and a laid back "Eco-Chic" attitude.
