Top Nature Spots in Mexico

Don't forget your sunscreen! I thought I was good, but ended up roasted. Apply generously and reapply often, especially at the beach spots.

I recommend hitting the park right when it opens at 8 AM. The crowds are way less, and you can enjoy the views without all the selfies blocking your way!

I think you should wear comfy shoes. There’s a lot of walking and some uneven paths, so don’t ruin your day with blisters!

I suggest checking out the lesser-known ruins first before the main ones. They’re just as beautiful but with a lot fewer people. You’ll get some amazing pics!

Don’t forget sunscreen, but also bring a good hat. The sun can be intense, especially in the afternoon. I got a bit fried despite applying regularly.

Take a stroll down the beach to find quieter spots. Some areas get really busy, but just a few minutes walk can lead you to some peaceful spots perfect for relaxing.

I suggest visiting early in the morning or around 5 PM for stunning sunsets. The beach is much less crowded, and the views are just breathtaking!

Look out for local vendors selling fresh coconut water. It’s super refreshing and much cheaper than the drinks on the beach. Bonus – you can ask them to chop it open for you!

Check out the old steel mill structures; they have a lot of character and make for great photo ops. I wished I had more time to explore that area

Make sure to check the schedule for events before you go. Sometimes there are live concerts or markets, which can add a fun twist to your visit.

Don’t skip the bike rental option! It’s a fun way to cover more ground and see all the cool installations. Just be sure to plan a route in advance.

If you're into photography, I recommend going in the early morning to catch the sunrise. The lighting is magical, and there are fewer people around.

Wear comfortable shoes! I made the mistake of wearing sandals that day, and my feet regretted it. You’ll want to walk around a lot and really explore.

Don’t be tight with your time! Plan to spend a whole day there. I thought I could squeeze it into half a day, but left feeling rushed. Just relax and enjoy!

Check out the lakes but bring your own snacks! I bought overpriced chips from a vendor, and it wasn’t worth it. Relax by the water with a picnic instead.

I suggest getting an Uber to the park rather than parking nearby. The parking situation looked chaotic, and it’s easier to just get dropped off at the entrance.

You might want to consider bringing cash. The place has ATMs, but they can run out of money, and some vendors prefer cash over cards

Bring your own snacks and drinks! The food at the park is decent, but the prices are a bit steep – plus, you'll save time skipping the lines.

To get the most out of your visit, I suggest hiking the trails before diving into the hot springs – the views are breathtaking and worth the effort!

While the cable cars are a fun ride, the hike back down is just as cool. I think it’s a hidden gem, and you get to enjoy the scenery at your own pace.

If you're planning to grab a bite check out the food stalls at the entrance for some delicious local snacks. They’re pretty humbly priced and I loved the tacos!

Try to catch a live music performance if you can. I stumbled upon one and it really added an awesome vibe to the park. Just check the schedule, so you don’t miss out!

Bring a book or a sketchpad! The surroundings are just so charming that it’s a perfect spot to relax and let your creativity flow, plus it's free!

I recommend visiting the park early in the morning around 7 AM. It's much quieter, so you can enjoy the beautiful scenery and get some great photos without all the crowds.

I think you should skip the overpriced food at the cenote restaurant. Pack a little snack or sandwich before you go; there are picnic areas!

Before heading out, double-check if they have towel rentals available. I forgot to bring mine and had to buy one – not only was it a waste of money, but it was also super inconvenient.

My advice is to wear water shoes. The steps getting down can get slippery, and trust me, you don’t want to take a tumble when you're excited to dive in!

Bring your own snorkel gear. Renting it there costs extra, and honestly, it’s much cooler to explore the water if you have your own stuff.

Bring your own snacks! Some food options are quite pricey, and there's plenty of spots to picnic inside the zoo. I wish I had done that.

Bring cash! Some spots don’t accept cards, and you might miss out on snacks or entry fees if you don’t have enough on hand

I suggest getting there by 8 AM to enjoy the trails before it gets crowded and the sun becomes too harsh. Early morning is stunning!

Pack a picnic! It's such a beautiful area, and having lunch surrounded by nature is a fantastic experience.

check the weather beforehand. i got caught in a sudden downpour, and it dampened the fun. a quick look will save you from getting soaked!
