About Playa del Carmen

On Mexico's Riviera Maya, Playa del Carmen is anchored by Quinta Avenida, a four-kilometre pedestrian boulevard one block from the sand that doubles as the ferry gateway to Cozumel and the Mesoamerican Reef. Playa Mamitas runs lively at the north end of the central strip with beach clubs and music, while Punta Esmeralda just north of town offers a rare brackish swim where a cenote spring meets the Caribbean. Sea temperatures hold between 28 and 29 °C year-round, and Cancún International airport sits 50 minutes north via Highway 307.
