Should be fun, was just in Cabo San Lucas a few weeks ago... Nice here and snorkelled with Whale Sharks, not sure if they something similar on the East Coast....
 
Following this for sure. I'm in San Pedro and Playa del Carmen soon, want to know what to make sure I see :)

Enjoy!

AA1190 J DFW-CUN .... first time to Mexico :)

Bit of a party flight with drinks being served non-stop... excellent crew with a very talkative captain.

After much research I decided to hire a car with Easy Way .... great company that delivered on every promise made. Have no hesitation recommending this company.

The hotel is one of four in Tulum owned by an Australian family ... this trip we’ll get to stay at two of them.

Our rooms were spectacular - absolute beachfront complete with hot tubs.

What an absolutely cracking place :D
 
They’ve covered the more delicate artifacts from the elements ... however, you can climb the temple and enjoy the view.

2km from the Ek Balam is a Cenote Cenote - Wikipedia

You can walk, hire a bike or rickshaw. This the best way to cool down after climbing the temple .... these swimming holes are stunning - highly recommended!

The drive back to Tulum - you can see the vegetation trying to devour the tarmac... we saw many gangs of men slashing the old fashion way - machetes

Tonight we eat at ARCA Arca | Home

This is a sensational restaurant - you would want to put it on the list!
