titans&bucs&bearsohmy! 2,745 Posted December 19, 2018 I went a couple of years ago. I do recommend going to see the Mayan pyramids (there is another place besides chichen itza that they say is better. We went, it was cool) and also go swim in a cenote. Basically a big ass underground lake. Both of these things can be done in half a day together. Hire a guide from your resort. Other than that, there is no reason to leave the bar. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bier Meister 1,513 Posted December 19, 2018 I've read this is an excellent place for scuba. I'm personally not interested but I'll get the skinny for you. We have been to Cancun and Cozumel. Great diving. Some resorts include scuba, some do not. Your resort looks very nice. In addition to chichen Itza, Tulum, and coba, check out xel- ha and xcaret. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Frozenbeernuts 1,652 Posted December 20, 2018 I went to Playa Del Carmen once. We were on a tour in a Cenote, and we could see the slick of the bat shlt on the surface of the water. Kind of gross. Well this young married couple who didn't even look 21 was in the group. The guy, out of nowhere, takes a drink of the water. The guide and I both looked at him in horror and told him not to do that again. I bet he had a pretty horrid rest of his honeymoon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frozenbeernuts 1,652 Posted December 20, 2018 You need to visit Xel Ha (pronounced Shell Ha). Anyone who is within reasonable distance from Xel Ha needs to experience it. The all you can eat and drink are cherries on top of the coolest park I have been to 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Patriotsfatboy1 1,432 Posted January 8, 2019 Stay safe, my friend. Looks like press is making out to be at the resort, but it was really in a bar in a low income section far away from a resort in Playa del Carmen. I don't know if it is even near where you are going. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/world/2019/01/07/7-dead-shooting-mexican-resort-playa-del-carmen/2508372002/ 7 dead in shooting at Mexican bar in Playa del Carmen Mark Stevenson, Associated Press Published 6:38 p.m. ET Jan. 7, 2019 | Updated 8:25 a.m. ET Jan. 8, 2019 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
