| Puerto Morelos,
is located at the main entrance of the "Riviera Maya" at
only 15 minutes (18 km / 11 miles) south of the Cancun International
Airport, down the coast of the State of Quintana Roo. Puerto Morelos
is the perfect contrast between the glamourous five-star Cancun and
Playa del Carmen. Its low-key people and interesting sites offer unique
activities tailored to small groups. |

| In Puerto Morelos
tranquility reigns with open skies, long stretches of beach and a
small town atmosphere. This is the place to come and relax: watch
the sunrise on the beach, met the |
 |
locals, explore the natural
wonders such as the coral reef 500 meters from shore, work on your
tan or simply soak up the serenity. Wedged between the bustling cities
of Cancun and Playa del Carmen, it has maintained its peaceful atmosphere
of a charming Mexican fishing village living up to its nickname “La
Joya del Caribe” (Jewel of the Caribbean). The community, a mix
of locals and foreigners, works hard to protect Puerto’s status
as a National Marine Park and keep development to a minimum. Its close
proximity to the airports and bus terminals makes Puerto Morelos a
perfect base for exploring the Yucatan peninsula. |
