The friendliest destinations in Mexico
A friendly tourist destination offers support for travelers looking for directions, lodging, and recommendations about restaurants, tours, activities, or places to visit.
Considering this definition, in 2021 the journal Real Estate Market & Lifestyle issued a listing with the 20 friendliest destinations in Mexico, of which five belong to the Caribbean. This makes Quintana Roo the state with the most destinations on this list. The Mexican Caribbean destinations listed are Tulum, Playa del Carmen, Cozumel, Holbox, and Cancun.
Playa del Carmen and Tulum, perfect for those looking for happiness.
If you're looking to enjoy a vacation to fill you with energy, good vibes, and new experiences, then Playa del Carmen and Tulum are the perfect destinations for you. These places in the Mayan Riviera are the perfect combination of dreamy beaches, coral reefs bursting with marine fauna and flora, and a living culture.
Playa del Carmen is an idyllic place located in the heart of the Mayan Riviera, a beach with fine white sand and turquoise-blue sea. Here you can dabble in or perfect your outdoor water activity skills, with options such as windsurfing, kayaking, and diving to leisurely explore the reefs. You can also stroll down Fifth Avenue, the largest commercial area in the Mexican Caribbean, and enjoy the lively night life in nearby bars and clubs.
Tulum, on the other hand, is a bohemian destination filled with lush vegetation, known worldwide for being home to the archaeological site of Tulum. This is the perfect place to reconnect with nature, enjoy yoga sessions, afternoons in the spa, walks on the beach, bike rides around the village, swimming in the nearby cenotes, and much more.
