OVERVIEW

Have you always dreamt of honeymooning in Mexico? Riviera Maya offers the very best of the traditional Mexican experience blended with fun activities so you can enjoy all that this gorgeous country has to offer. Here, you’ll discover white sandy beaches, delicious food, historic ruins and so much more. Over the last few decades, it’s grown fast, but amongst the modern enhancements, you’ll still find its old-world charm and fishing town origins.

If Mexico is at the top of your agenda for its beaches, you certainly won’t be disappointed with Maya’s tropical coastlines. This destination is best known for drawing in snorkelling and scuba diving enthusiasts from around the world as the world’s biggest reef is located here. While underwater, you’ll also get the chance to swim in one of the many underwater rock pools where you’re sure to spot marine lift hiding out.

If wildlife is your thing, you’ll see all sorts of amazing creatures at one of Maya’s many eco-parks. Hosting an array of family-friendly entertainment, these parks will make a great day trip if you plan on bringing the kids along with you on your honeymoon.

If you’re a fan of history, the Mayan ruins can’t be missed. You’ll get the chance to explore a perfectly preserved city in Tulum, compromising an astonishing 60 buildings still intact for you to explore at your leisure. Make sure you have your camera at the ready – this little ancient city sits on a clifftop, so you’ll get amazing views of miles and miles around.

When the evening rolls around, there is plenty to keep young honeymooners occupied. If partying is your scene, you’ll find plenty of bars and clubs in Playa del Carmen, which is considered Maya’s most lively and up and coming city.
