Yucatán Top 10 This Month: June, 2022

It’s finally summer! We can already feel the warm breeze and the passing afternoon clouds…Can you? They’re clearly encouraging you to enjoy Yucatán’s cenotes and beaches. The Vistamar beach club, by the Chicxulub pier, is a great spot to have a cold beer and a great summer day.

Are you ready to discover Yucatán’s next Magical Town before it gets crowded? It isn’t official, but it’s in the running, so get ready: Tekax is displaying 10 mural paintings telling us about the city’s culture and history. They’re the perfect backdrop for a photoshoot! Get your outfit ready and let’s go!

Since you’re in Tekax, you should make the most of your stay with activities like visiting a Maya village, riding ATVs in the jungle, exploring a wide range of marvelous caves, watching the Yucatecan hills from above while ziplining, and, of course, having delicious regional food. One day won’t be enough!
