The archaeological zone of Tulum can be toured in an hour and a half, and information panels in Spanish and English are placed in front of each building.

The ruins of Tulum are one of the best preserved on the Peninsula. Most of the buildings date from the post-classic period of the Mayan civilization, around the years 1200 to 1450, the engravings and paintings that have been found explain that it was a place of worship and veneration of a supposed "Descending God".

Between the Castle and the Temple of the Wind, a small beach has been formed, it is assumed that it was the port where commercial vessels arrived. Today, this beach is closed because it has been transformed into a nesting area for loggerheads and white turtles.

Every year, between the months of June and September, these two species of sea turtles come to this cove to lay their eggs.

Coba Archaeological Site

Coba is the archaeological site with the highest temple in the Yucatan Peninsula and has the oldest network of stone walkways in the Mayan world.

It is believed that the name "Coba" is the original name of this city, which means "choppy water", due to its proximity to lagoons. with seven structures in the area, the Temple of Nohoch Mul represents the tallest pyramid in the whole area.

Kuxtal Cenote

It is an ecotourism location with a cenote and lodging for nature-loving tourists. Where you can refresh yourself in its crystal clear waters and have a connection with nature and away from all the noise of the cities.
