Playa del Carmen is one of the top diving destinations in the world, thanks to vibrant sea life and dazzling underwater caverns. On dry land, Playa is a hipper and more modern version of the fishing village it once was. Spend some quality time on the golf course or wave hello to the playful spider monkeys at The Jungle Place sanctuary. Explore the ancient ruins of the Coba Mayan Village, or get in some quality people-watching as you shop and stroll along 5th Avenue.

This term is used to refer to the Yucatan coast now popular among tourists.
Have been twice now to this part of Mexico and loved it! The area stretches all the way down from Cancun to Tulum and the beaches are amazing. Very little seaweed when we were there (April 2019). There's loads of other stuff to do as well - Eco Parks / Adventure Parks, numerous cenotes for swimming, Mayan Ruins at Tulum, Snorkelling/Diving and fantastic wildlife (we saw monkeys, coatis and agoutis in the hotel grounds). Would definitely go back.

Would definitely recommend Playacar as a location for a great holiday! It is a secure gated community with a mixture of all-inclusive resorts and private homes and villas. We have stayed twice at the Riu Tequila which was excellent. You can walk freely around the area and it's all very safe and has a nice laid back feel. There is a small plaza of shops and the main shopping area is downtown Playa Del Carmen which is only 5 minutes by cab. Just be aware that if you are looking for an authentic Mexican cultural experience you won't find it in Playacar!

You can escape the crowds and enjoy a leisurely walk to the beach, followed by a dip in the turquoise waters. Keep walking along Quinta Avenida , crossing over CTM street,keeping the sea on your right. This route is perfect for strolling, jogging or biking as it's closed to traffic. You have greenery aĺl the way and a pleasant path. Keep going until you reach the Paradisus resort. A few meters on take the dirt track leading to the beach. The water is shallow and there's a lifeguard on duty. There's a family atmosphere. You can pay a few pesos to use the showers and toilet facilities.

This park/plaza is located at the southernmost part of the commercial zone in Play del Carmen adjacent to the ferry pier which takes passengers to Cozumel. It is a nice open area right on a nice beach. Lots of shops around and of course bars and eating venues. Worth a visit while you are in Playa del Carmen.
