Place to visit near Riviera Maya Hotels see new attractions

Playa del Carmen, 30 minutes south of Cancun, has quadrupled in population in the past few years, due in large part to its wide soft beaches, miles of snorkel-friendly reef and proximity to Cancun's airport.

Even further south, the Riviera Maya becomes more laid-back, with smaller enclaves of resorts – many with beautiful strands of clean, palm-lined beaches carved out of a flat jungle. This section of the Rviera Maya is more about the natural environment, which helps explain the prevalence of natural parks designed to raise visitor's appreciation of the ocean environment.

Xcaret is the largest such park. You can spend the day floating through underground caverns, snorkeling in lagoons, swimming with manatees and visiting a sea turtle nursery, butterfly pavilion and aviary.

Budget-minded travelers can choose from family-run hotels, fishing lodges and beach shacks without electricity tucked among villages and coves running down the coast.

The Riviera Maya saves one of its best cultural offerings for last: 80 miles south of Cancun is Tulum, well-preserved ruins of the ancient Maya civilization, perched on a 40 foot cliff above the shimmering Caribbean. Stroll among temples and dwellings that were abandoned after the Spanish Conquest in the 1500s.

Coba, a vast jungle city 30 minutes west of Tulum, was occupied by the Maya between 800 A.D. and 1100 A.D. and features steeped pyramids, temples, ball courts and uncovered ruins. and Chichen Itza

Back up north a short ferry ride from Cancun is Isla Mujeres (Island of Women), a very relaxed alternative to Cancun's frenetic pace. Highlights include snorkeling the vibrant reef of El Garafon National Park and swimming with dolphins.

Cancun's other nearby island is Cozumel, a scuba-lover's dream 12 miles offshore that offers diving for all levels – challenging drift dives, deep walls, shipwrecks, and the popular caves and canyons of Palancar Reef, discovered in the 1960s by Jacque Cousteau.

Catamaran for party is available at this place and price and details are:

SUNSET TOUR for groups of fewer than 10 guests. 2 HRS us 500

Sunset on the Mayan Riviera is our favorite time of day. You'll understand how we feel when you experience our sunset sailing tour aboard the Paso Doble. There's no better place to soak up the last rays of the tropical sun than our graceful 46-foot catamaran as we cruise up the Caribbean coastline. We take special pride in the comfort and cleanliness of our customized catamaran. If conditions are right, we won't even turn on the engines and instead allow the Caribbean breezes to provide the windpower for our tour. If there's a cruise ship anchored at Calica, we'll often be able to get an ocean view you won't find anywhere else. Speaking of views, the water is the only place to be to fully appreciate the spectacular beauty of a Mayan Riviera sunset. You'll watch with awe as the sun gradually melts into the lush backdrop of the Yucatan. In addition to the thrill of sailing, relaxing on the Paso Doble has its own rewards. Our guests are welcome to enjoy complimentary bottled water and soft drinks. As an option, you may request an open bar and/or assortment of hors d'oeuvres. Our selection of adult beverages includes beer, tequila, rum punch, and margaritas. Our hors d'oeuvres menu typically includes finger paninis with ham and gouda cheese, mini bagels with cream cheese and smoked salmon, dill or chives, vol-au-vents with spicy crab meat filling, and cream cheese topped with sun-dried tomatoes, and brochettes of gouda cheese, fresh basil and cherry tomatoes. The Paso Doble also features a shaded seating area and bathroom facilities.

AFTERNOON Charter for fewer than 10 guests. 4Hrs 750 us

Is there a better way to spend an afternoon than sailing along the Mayan Riviera on your own private charter tour? We don't think so, and anyone who has been aboard our 46-foot catamaran for an afternoon on the Mexican Caribbean will agree. Snorkel, swim, or sit back and soak up the sun - it's your tour. We specialize in weddings, family reunions, memorial services, corporate events, and other occasions to remember. At Paradise Catamarans, we work hard to create memories to last a lifetime. Our 46-foot catamaran has been customized for fun and comfort, with plenty of room to stretch out and easy access to the water. The Mexican Caribbean is our home, and we'll treat you to an experience you won't find anywhere else. For the snorkeling portion of your charter tour, we've picked a beautiful, secluded location not far from an untouched area of the Riviera Maya. The In-Ha inlet offers underwater attractions for all skill levels. Sheltered from strong currents and shaped roughly like a horseshoe, In-Ha provides a natural sanctuary to tropical marine life. You'll swim at your own pace above the seabed below, with an unhurried view of the coral reef and marine life. The "Fish Identification Card" we issue to each snorkeler will help you better understand the diversity of the Riviera Maya ecosystem. Whether you are snorkeling in the shallows or exploring deeper areas that extend down to 25 feet, you'll enjoy every minute of your time in the water. Because safety always comes first at Paradise Catamarans, we employ some of the best English-speaking guides in the business. At minimum, each guide is certified in rescue diving and most are full-fledged divemasters. One of our professional guides is assigned to supervise no more than twelve snorkelers. Our top-quality equipment complements the professionalism of our guides. You'll appreciate our semi-dry snorkels. Unlike the cheaper models commonly provided to tourists, the purge valves in semi-dry snorkels minimize the amount of water entering the breathing tubes. Moreover, all of our equipment is thoroughly sanitized after each use. In addition to the fun in the water, relaxing on the Paso Doble has its own rewards. Our guests are welcome to enjoy complimentary bottled water and soft drinks. As an option, you may request an open bar and/or assortment of hors d'oeuvres. Our selection of adult beverages includes beer, tequila, rum punch, and margaritas. (For safety reasons, alcohol is not served until after the completion of water activities.) Our hors d'oeuvres menu typically includes paninis with ham and gouda cheese, mini bagels with cream cheese and smoked salmon, dill or chives, vol-au-vents with spicy crab meat filling, and cream cheese topped with sun-dried tomatoes, and fresh Mexican salsa with chips. The Paso Doble also features a shaded seating area and bathroom facilities.

People comments on tripadvisor:
We went on the Mayan Adventure tour offered in the pamphlets in the hotel. My husband and myself and our 4 teens all enjoyed the day. You get picked up at your hotel and driven to Yal Kul lagoon for the first snorkel. This is an underground river joining the ocean. Saw Turtles and a Barracuta. Quite a swim out to the reef though so we wre moving alot and I would have preferred to have had more time in the lagoon with the colourful fish.
the next place was a cenote cave and that was exciting. Just an open cave, no tunnels or anything too scary. Beautiful! Last was an open cenote and the ritual sacrifice of jumping 35 feet into the lake. Well I used the stairs.... Lunch included and it was a great day.

The Islands of the Mexican Caribbean

The Charming Islands of the Mexican Caribbean Contoy Holbox Isla Blanca Isla Mujeres

The common characteristic of the islands is their peaceful beauty and their diverse flora and fauna. This is particularly true of Contoy Island , which is uninhabited as it is a National Park, and is known for its beautiful bird sanctuary.

Isla mujeres is commonly described as a peaceful island of fishermen with some alarming stories of pirates. In reality, it presents a very different image, with small boutique hotels scattered along its 7 km length, and over 975 hotel rooms. It is located 14 km from Cancun, across the Bay of Women.

Holbox, known as the rustic island home to flamingos, specializes in ecotourism. It is located off the north coast of Quintana Roo, and has only 20 hotels, mostly cottage-style, and 262 rooms. Holbox offers unique outdoor activities and unforgettable tours, suck as the whale shark and exotic bird watching.

Cozumel, only 15 minutes flight form Cancun, or 35 minutes boat ride from Playa del Carmen, is an island rich in traditions and culture that predates the Spanish arrival. It has over 4,000 hotel rooms, is 48 kilometers long, and is the largest island in Mexico. Its international fame is due to the enormous and beautiful coral reefs that surround it, and as such, it is an excellent destination for aquatic activities. Cozumel has the second best diving reef in the world, second only to Australia. The annual arrival of the cruise ships, about 1,300 of them, bearing more than 2 million passengers, makes Cozumel one of Mexico's most important ports.

Whale Shark in the Riviera Maya

Dive with the whale shark at the Riviera Maya

To think of a fish that can be 18 meters long sounds a little prehistorical, even more when we are told that it is herbivorous and it lives in these days distributed among the warm waters of the world. It's fascinating to think that the same water where swimmers enjoy summer, this gigantic animal lives.

This creature is really a fish but people include the name whale because his enormous size.

Whale sharks are essential animals in the ocean. According to experts, to catch these animals could produce terrible disasters in the ocean's balance. This is why every place this creature visits, ecotourism program that protect it and inform to the people about the characteristics and situation that this huge animal is facing are developed.

Whale shark turn out to be great tourist attraction that let divers get close enough to touch them, and is an awesome unique experience the takes them even to cross the word only to touch their rough skin.

The local community of Holbox Island developed conduct codes that let you enjoy this fascinating experience at the same time you preserve this natural wonder.

Here you can find boats to rent and go to Isla Holbox and Isla Contoy

He found that the Whale Sharks tend to aggregate every year around Holbox and the Campeche bank. They are still not sure why, but they do know that the main reason is the nutrient rich water that comes into the basin at this time of year. This is now a protected park but the problem is that now they know that the Whale Sharks go way out of this range and they need more protection. The Mexican government has been very strict thus far but will need to do more soon. Holbox has changed from a sleepy fishy village, (island), to an Ecotourism
Island. The fisherman have turned into guides and have done a  great job of
setting rules and guidelines that the tourist that come to see the Whales sharks must follow

The team has made many observations with two types of tagging, photographs, sightings, etc. With the satellite tags, they get information once the tag pops off the Whale Shark which is usually in about one month

Holbox will need to make sure that they only allow a certain amount of tourists and boats out in the park waters at one time. They are worried that too many boats will affect the Whale Sharks in general. Hurricane Wilma did put quite a damper on this island but the tourism and people have brought it back. The Mexican government and the Whale Shark team are very concerned that boats may come from as far away as Cancun. Once the Whale Sharks leave Holbox, some go towards Texas, some towards the western gulf, some down past Cozumel, some towards Cuba, but they don't know where all of them go. They don't know at what age exactly they are mature enough for mating. They don't know where the pupping grounds are or when and where they mate. There are a few fisherman stories about the Whale Sharks thrashing around, like fighting and then the water turns white. Hopefully this will be documented and then they will know that the Whale Sharks come to Holbox for something beside food. It's usually also timed around the snapper spawn

Each year many Whale Sharks visit isla de Holbox, from 500 - 1500, May - Sept.
Whale Sharks come when the water is nutrient rich. 
Whale Sharks can eat up to 9 pounds per hour in the right conditions
Whale Sharks tend to aggregate every year at and around Holbox, both Mature males and female and Immature males and females.
Whale Sharks feed in 3 different ways, Active Ram filter feeding, Vertical feeding when the waters are nutrient rich, and Passive feeding, when they just have their mouths open and maybe get something.
Whale Sharks are very fast growing animals
Whale Sharks closest relative, the Nurse shark
Whale Shark numbers in the Caribbean are increasing.
Whale Sharks can travel up to 35 miles in one day
Whale Sharks can go as deep as 3000' which they don't know why but right now they think it has something to do with cooling off. After a full day of feeding at the surface in the hot sun, they rest and glide down and then come up in a short time.
