Puerto Morelos, a quiet hamlet of the Mayan Riviera, offers visitors a small glimpse of the authentic Yucatan.
Closer to the Cancun airport than Cancun itself, Puerto Morelos is an excellent base of operations for those looking for a quieter place than the nearby trendy areas of Cancun and Playa del Carmen.
Government ecological reserve regulations protect the reef and mangroves, and the village itself, from development. Locally, you will find exciting adventures in the jungle and in scuba diving. If you want a little more relaxed adventures, rent a bicycle, a car or a moped.
