View All DealsHolidays to Puerto Morelas let you escape the crowds as you explore its peaceful, small village, and relax by the calm, Caribbean waters.
Fishing village
This friendly and picturesque Mexican fishing village sits within the northern part of the Riviera Maya, a 30-minute drive from Cancun. The town has a laidback atmosphere, swapping the glitz and glamour of southern Mexico for natural beauty – so you’re guaranteed a relaxing stay.
Jewel of the Caribbean
True to its nickname, Puerto Morelas is the ‘jewel of the Caribbean’. You’ll find it halfway between Cancun and Playa del Carmen, next to a huge marine national park, and beautiful, white-sand beaches that stretch out for miles. The calm, crystal-blue waters make it a diver’s paradise. And with lots of local restaurants, it’s a haven for foodies, too.
Snorkelling territory
Stays in Puerto Morelas put you on the doorstep of a marine national park. Within this huge protected area lies the second largest barrier reef in the world – and it’s just a few hundred metres from the shore. Jump in feet first as you explore the underwater life in the reefs, and swim with tropical fish, sea turtles, and rays, to name a few.
