Stunning beaches, diverse ecosystems, ancient ruins, and a relaxed lifestyle all in the one place make Tulum a true paradise
Tulum is a walled city overlooking the Caribbean Sea on Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula. It’s known for its beautiful beaches, crystal-clear waters, and ancient Mayan ruins, including El Castillo and the Templo del Dios del Viento, two beautiful structures perched on the cliffs above white-sand beaches.
Tulum is the ideal destination for nature lovers and eco-tourists with the UNESCO World Heritage-protected Sian Ka’an Biosphere Reserve encompassing a vast area with jungles, mangroves, lagoons and reefs. The local wildlife includes dolphins, manatees, crocodiles, sea turtles, and many bird species.
Moreover, the area’s Parque Nacional is home to the world-famous cenotes – freshwater pools in natural limestone sinkholes – where visitors can enjoy swimming, snorkelling and diving in the turquoise waters.
With a relaxed holiday feel, downtown Tulum is full of quaint cafes, small art galleries, boho-chic clothing stores, and yoga studios.
