Riviera Maya Vacations
Located just south of the Int. Airport of Cancun, the Riviera Maya is miles away from ordinary. Named for the ancient Mayan people who built the ruins that lie throughout, this pristine stretch of white-sand beaches, mysterious underground water pools named Cenotes and sprawling resorts lend an utterly secluded feel with the convenience of being only minutes away from a variety of exciting activities. The Riviera Maya invites you to relax with the casual pace of Tulum town, feel the excitement of Playa del Carmen's famous 5th Avenue, step back in time with a visit to the ancient ruins, try snorkeling at Xel-Ha´s natural aquarium, or hike through Xcaret eco-archaeological park. No matter which path you choose, you're sure to find something you've never seen before.
