Playa del Carmen

Started the day with a short drive to Hacienda Oxman to swim in their cenote. Another really deep cenote and long roots and vines hanging all the way down from the ground level high above.

Spent about 30 minutes swimming there and then drove 90 minutes south to Tulum. Unfortunately the mayan ruins were a very long wait so decided to skip it. Went to the Tulum brewery instead. Gorgeous restaurant, almost like fine dining. But the prices were outrageous. For example, a burger was 50 Canadian dollars! So i just had a couple of small samples of their beers and instead found a really nice restaurant on the ocean.

Then drove an hour to playa del carmen. My first time back in almost 20 years and wow has it ever grown! Found a few great craft beer places amongst the craziness of this city to finish off a fantastic adventure in the yucatan peninsula.Read more
