Your community-driven magazine, offering tips, services for home abroaders, and unforgettable experiences.
Palm trees sway gently in the ocean breeze, resting besides the sand below. It's a scene straight out of a postcard, yet here in Tulum, it's simply everyday life. Located on the eastern coast of the Yucatán Peninsula in Mexico, and two hours away from major ancient Mayan City Chichen Itza, is renowned for its stunning turquoise beaches, Mayan history, and eco-friendly way of living. Tulum is an increasingly popular tourist destination, thanks to its unique combination of beautiful beaches, historic Mayan ruins, delicious cuisine, vibrant nightlife, and relaxed bohemian atmosphere, it is home to thousands of cenotes, which are natural sinkholes filled with crystal-clear freshwater and are, just like the beaches, perfect for swimming, snorkeling, and diving, offering a unique opportunity to explore geological sites. Tulum has a laid-back, bohemian atmosphere that attracts artists, musicians, and free spirits from around the world.
The town is full of boutique hotels, yoga retreats, organic cafes, and artisanal shops, which is why locals and tourists alike fall in love with this Mexican coastal spot. In addition to beach relaxation and cultural exploration, Tulum offers a variety of adventure activities such as zip-lining, jungle trekking, kiteboarding, and stand-up paddleboarding, providing opportunities for adrenaline seekers to experience nature. Other attractions include cenotes, mangroves, and the Sian Ka'an Biosphere Reserve, a UNESCO World Heritage Site containing tropical forests, mangroves, as well as a large marine section intersected by a barrier reef in one of Mexico's largest protected areas, established to manage 528,148 hectares, with an exceptional diversity of life in tropical forests that are home to mammals such as Jaguar, Puma, Ocelot and Central American Tapir.
Tulum holds a balance between nature, sustainability, eco-tourism and bohemian lifestyle
