Read MorePUERTO MORELOS
Puerto Morelos, a small fishing village located along Mayan Riviera between Cancun and Playa del Carmen, is only 5 minutes drive distance from Playa del Secreto. It is the perfect contrast between the glamorous, luxurious Cancun and the funky, bohemian atmosphere of Playa del Carmen. As a serene and quaint destination with a low-key population and a laid back attitude, vacationers here feel the essence of Mexico. Downtown you will find a variety of restaurants featuring fresh fish and native dishes, a small medical center, pharmacy, church, grocery stores, fruit stand, book shop, Mexican handicraft shops, money exchange, travel and car agencies plus bicycle rentals. In addition, outside of the downtown area you will find a Crocodile farm plus a magnificent botanical garden with their own Mayan ruins. You can experience the unsurpassed beauty of the second largest coral reef in the world, snorkeling (daily trips from Puerto Morelos), fishing trips, jungle tours,scuba diving, or shopping in the typical artisan stores or…have a dinner in one of the many excellent restaurants, pizzerias, pubs or cafes. Many of the stores maintain the traditional Mexican hours: open from 10 am to 1, closed for lunch and siesta and re-opened from 5 until 9 pm. Puerto Morelos is home to many artists and artisans who sell their work in the stores. On the weekends there is an open-air market called a tianguis where you can buy arts and crafts directly from the makers.
