4 Reasons You Should Visit the Riviera Maya Millions of people visit the Riviera Maya every year; in fact, this part of the Yucatan peninsula hosted nearly 4 million tourists in 2017 alone. However, why do so many tourists prefer the Riviera Maya and not the glitzy Cancun? Is it because it is easy to get to, or the fact that this place offers some of the most stunning natural wonders that you will not find anywhere in the world? Absolutely! Besides these magnificent features, there are a few other reasons. We list some for you…. Sunsets, caves, cenotes and more: Swimmers are spoilt for choosing the Riviera Maya. Besides the bright blue ocean, they also get to swim in one of the many cenotes or underground rivers in and around the Yucatan peninsula. Cenotes are sinkholes that were formed when the porous limestone bedrocks collapsed, thereby exposing the groundwater beneath. To the ancient Mayans, these were ritual places protected by spirits. Besides the underground river, many other natural attractions make this place unique and wonderful. Food: Besides the usual enchiladas, tamales, tacos, and tortillas, there’s a variety of delicacy dishes that the Riviera Maya has to offer. At the Loco Gringo, our local experts can take you to all the places they love to eat. We’ll help you explore the extensive seafood menu in Puerto Morelos, and even take you to sample Cochinita Pibil – a local Yucatan delicacy. Plenty of Activities: From scuba diving and snorkeling to zip-lining, rappelling, and parasailing, there are plenty of things to do for an adventure lover. Moreover, if you are done trying all of these, try kitesurfing. This is one of the most popular adventure activities in the Caribbean. If you need help with the technique, there are plenty of schools that offer instructors and the necessary gear for you to train. Affordable Accommodation: This one can be tricky. While there are plenty of accommodation options, not all of them are affordable. Moreover, neither are they worth trusting. A local expert at Loco Gringo can help you pick a hotel that fits your requirement and budget. All of our Riviera Maya vacation rentals are personally checked and reviewed by our team. We also take pictures of these hotel rooms so that you can be sure of what you are paying for! Visit Riviera Maya for your next vacation!
