Useful Tips

If you have more time, consider visiting the Tulum Mayan Ruins or explore the colorful street art in town. If you have less time, skip the Grand Cenote and spend more time relaxing on the beach. Bring plenty of sunscreen, water and cash. Many places in Tulum are cash-only and may not accept credit cards. Also, keep in mind that Tulum is very busy during the peak season (December to March), so plan your visit accordingly and make reservations in advance.
