History and Beaches: Mayan Riviera

Are you dreaming of your next vacation? Ready to hit the beach? Don't neglect the history near by as you enjoy the sun and sand! The Mayan Riviera is a great example of a destination with both history and beaches.  The beautiful beaches along the Caribbean Sea in Quintana Roo have been enjoyed for centuries. You can take a moment from the beach and visit the  ancient Mayan city of Tulum. The ruins are a National Park that you can explore.





Don't want to travel that far? Take a tour of the town of Playa del Carmen. Just a few steps from the beach you can enjoy shopping and performance by Mayan Pole Dancers on Parque Fundadores. You can also enjoy the beautiful Capilla de Nuestra Señora del Carmen while there.
