As the only Maya archaeological site on the coast of the Yucatan, Tulum draws visitors as much for its views as its monuments. The ruins of this remarkable clifftop city make for a compelling visit, usually followed by a dip and selfie in the wave-washed beach – famed for its turtles – below it. You can visit and wander around yourself, admiring the genuine uniqueness of the site. Or you can join a guided tour to get the lowdown on the meaning behind El Castillo pyramid, the Temple of the Frescoes, Temple of the Descending God, the House of the Halach Uinic and more. And then, round off the experience by popping down to the beach for a dip. Playa Paraíso, located just below El Castillo pyramid, is particularly popular. To avoid the crowds and heat, it’s advisable to arrive early in the day. Bring sun cream, water and comfie footwear to get the most out of your visit to one of Mexico’s most impressive heritage sites.
