Playa Beaches
The Beaches Of Playa Del Carmen
Playa Del Carmen has many beaches to offer, in fact they are part of what make the area so famous. Starting from the ferry docks and continuing North, you will find vast stretches of playa beaches, open white sand, and crystal clear blue waters. Most resorts in Playa Del Carmen run parallel to the ocean, and are at least a short walk to reach the water’s edge.
As always, getting an ocean side room is recommended, the views can be stunning as you look over miles of blue
ocean. Very relaxing. To get a great Playa Del Carmen deal, look off the beach and stay at a resort or hotel not far away. You will get great prices, and Playa’s beaches will remain within walking distance. All of the beaches are open to the public. Although getting access to some of them is trickier said than done.
There is the main beach in Playa, next is the Playa Tukan beach, the Mamitas Beach, the Shangri-La Beach, the Zubul Beach, and finally at the northern most tip is Coco beach. Most of these beaches get their names from the all inclusive Playa Del Carmen resort that is built up alongside.
As you enjoy the ocean here, be sure to notice the white sand beaches, not as powdery as Cancun, but more salt like. Be sure to wear sandals, as it can get pretty toasty on a hot day!
Since Playa’s beaches are taken care of by the city, they have a fulltime staff dedicated to picking up the garbage and maintaining the area. So you as a visitor have a ideal experience on a clean beach!
You are never far away from a good drink, or meal, as the restaurants and bars stand less than 40 yards away. So enjoy your margarita on the beach, go ahead, chase it down with a cerveza! You’re on vacation after all!
Don’t worry about your safety, the lifeguards patrol the beaches of Playa constantly, they are right on top of matters if something goes wrong. You are always under their watchful eye.
September is the hottest month for the water, at times like this you may find you actually are sweating in the ocean! It’s like taking a warm bath. December to March are the cold times for the ocean here.
Travel to Playa Del Carmen, and enjoy the beautiful beaches this area has to offer!
