The area known as the Mayan Riviera is home to some of the most popular destinations in Mexico. This includes Cozumel, Cancun and Playa del Carmen. Currently there are many heading to Playa del Carmen for spring break because the remarkable beach front that stretches along the entire length of the city is home to some amazing clubs and bars.
In Playa del Carmen the bars tend to be located on the waterfront or along the main tourist route of the city, 5th Avenue. This means that all of them can be reached on foot and in a matter of only a few moments from club to club or bar to bar. Among the many good things about the city are the facts that there is no traffic allowed within the 5th Avenue region (which keeps late night wanderers from any harm) and that the police force is fairly stringent about out of control behavior and may stop revelers who are carrying and drinking open bottles of alcoholic beverages.
Many young people also enjoy a vacation in Playa del Carmen because it offers a unique experience from the other more well-known destinations along the Yucatan Peninsula. For example, there are more things to do in Playa del Carmen than almost anywhere else in the region. This is because of its central location, well-developed tourist services and large commercial capabilities.
There are also many activities that are enjoyable for people of all ages including the many things occurring all along the Playa del Carmen beach each and every day. There is horseback riding, sky diving, scuba diving, snorkeling, sunbathing, and many other activities. There are also deep sea fishing boats for hire, and many arrange Playa del Carmen tours to the ecological parks or historical destinations just outside of the city.
On the backside of the beach is 5th Avenue where shopping and dining are the order of the day. Here visitors can find the many artisans selling their handmade goods and they can sample some of the many popular Playa del Carmen restaurants. Of course any exploration of this area should include some scouting activities for the best bar, caf or club to visit later that evening.
The nightlife in the city doesnt really come to life until 10 p.m. or later, which is just when the shops and restaurants close for the day. This is one of the main reasons that so many now head to Playa del Carmen for spring break or other vacations.
