Top Nature in Playa del Carmen

I suggest wearing water shoes. The sand is beautiful but there are some rocky areas in the water that can hurt your feet, trust me I learned the hard way!

I think checking out the seaweed reports before you head out can save you some disappointment. I visited when it was heavy and it definitely took away from the gorgeous views!

If you’re thinking about renting a spot with a beach bed, haggle a bit! I was quoted 300 pesos at first but got it down to 200 after a friendly chat. Don’t shy away from negotiating!

My advice is to go around 7 am. The sunrise is stunning and it's way less crowded then. You'll get those perfect beach pics without strangers photobombing you!

Try visiting right before sunset. The views are breathtaking and you’ll capture some amazing photos with fewer crowds around!

Check the schedule for free events like live music or performances. I stumbled upon a fantastic dance show, and it felt like a bonus to my day!

Don't skip the snorkeling! I almost did because I thought it would be boring, but it was such a highlight for me. Just keep an eye on the time to make sure you don’t miss your tour slots.

Bring a waterproof phone case or camera! The cenotes are so picturesque and you don't want to miss capturing those stunning shots. Just don't forget to keep it safe!

I think packing some snacks and water is a good idea, especially if you're planning on spending the whole day there. The food options are limited and a bit pricey
