Share The Article There’s “living your best life,” and then there’s floating in warm Caribbean water while a green sea turtle paddles past like it owns the place (because, well, it does). We at The Cancun Sun want every traveler to tick this bucket-list moment and leave the beach better than we found it, so grab your reef-safe sunscreen and let’s talk turtle time.

We’ve all been there. Standing at baggage claim, flip-flops already on, wondering how fast we can get from the airport tarmac to the pool float!That’s where swim-out rooms come in clutch. Imagine checking in, tossing your suitcase on the bed, and your very first cannonball is a left turn away. No elevator rides, no “sorry, pool’s closed for cleaning,” just pure turquoise temptation right outside your patio.

Mexican Caribbean destinations like Cancun, Playa del Carmen, and Tulum are most known for their beautiful beaches, which is undeniable.   Their location on the Yucatan Peninsula, though, means they all have various Mayan ruins to explore, too.   While they may not be as well-known as those further inland like the great Chichen Itza, destinations along the coast still offer plenty of fine examples of Mayan history and ingenuity.   One of the best archeological sites in the region is in Tulum.
