- Xpu Ha
- There are multiple entrances to this beach that is just south of Playa del Carmen. We usually go to the entrance for La Playa where you pay 40 pesos per person. When you buy food at the beach club La Playa, they will reimburse you when you leave but keep your receipt to prove you paid. On weekends, they have live music. The beach is flat, white, and beautiful!
- Caleta Tankah
- Located just north of Tulum, this beach is part of the National Park system in Tulum. There is an entrance fee of 150 pesos per person and includes the use of lounge chairs at the beach club, access to the beach, and cenote. The beach club offers for food and drinks – you can´t bring your own.
- Xcacel
- Located just south of Akumal, this beach is a turtle sanctuary that is open to the public. Bring your own cooler and snacks as there are no beach clubs here. Cost is 20 pesos per person and you must adhere to their rules – no smoking, no sunscreen in the cenote, and when it is turtle nesting season, maintaining at least one meter distance between you and the marked nests.
- Isla Blanca
- With stunning sights and almost virgin powdery sands, it’s unbeatable for wind sports. Located just north of Cancun, there are a couple restaurants in the area, but we suggest bringing your own basic supplies. Isla Blanca remains untouched by any major developments and camping there is a million-star experience.
