 This information guide of Area Attractions along the

Maya starts at our home in Puerto Aventuras Mexico and steps out from
there. You can see what there is to see and do up and
down the Mayan Riviera coast to the north and south by navigating
on the buttons above. Follow your progress and see how
close you are to the various properties by opening up the Map
pages.

Cozumel:
With the short trip across, a world class reef, and enough shops to
tire out the most addicted shopper, Cozumel makes a great day trip for
diving, snorkeling, or to simply wander around the town of San Miguel
sightseeing. With all of the cruise ships that make Cozumel a port of
call, you will find an unbelievable abundance of jewelry shops there.
To get over to Cozumel, you will need to take the public passenger ferry
from Playa del Carmen for the 50 minute voyage. The round trip
cost is approximately US$15. 
The ferries leave Playa del Carmen at 6:00, 8:00, 9:00, 10:00, 11:00
AM and 1:00, 3:00, 5:00, 6:00, 7:00, 9:00 and 11:00 PM. The return
ferries leave Cozumel at 5:00, 7:00, 8:00, 9:00, 10:00, 12:00 AM and
2:00, 4:00, 5:00, 6:00, 8:00, 10:00 PM. A word of caution:
There are over 100 dive shops operating out of Cozumel so the level
of safety and service varies greatly. Check out who you are going
to dive or snorkel with before jumping on board.

Valladolid:
If you are headed to Chichen Itza or would simply like to make a day
trip to visit a charming Mexican town. We suggest you spend at least
a couple of hours in Valladolid.
The square in the center of town is where you should head first. From
here you can walk around checking out the park, church and shops. If
you are hungry or thirsty, you will find the “mercardo de comida” (food
market) with its’ many small restaurants offering numerous and delicious
“comida corrientes” (daily specials). The taco stand on the
street corner by the church are delicious for a quick snack. You
should also not miss the lovely Hotel El Meson del Marques. This 16th
century colonial house has a nice restaurant and a beautiful courtyard
to dine or simply have a refreshing drink. There is a handicraft market
near the square. We highly recommend that you see the Convento y
Iglesia de San Bernardino de Sisal. A convent constructed 1552 to
serve as church and fortress. It is a little difficult to find but
worth the effort. Be sure to ask if you can see the cenote and
gardens in back. If you want to cool off while in Valladolid then
you take your bathing suit and a go for a dip in the cenote located
right in town. You
will find Valladolid located just before Chichen Itza on the “free road.”
You can get there off of the toll highway, or by taking the free road
from Cancun, or by following the secondary road from Tulum, up past
Coba. We prefer to take a circular route which makes for a nice day
trip.
