Tulum is a captivating destination on Mexico's Yucatán Peninsula, known for its idyllic beaches, ancient Mayan ruins, vibrant culinary scene, and eco-friendly vibe. This guide offers comprehensive information to help you make the most of your visit, whether you're looking for adventure, relaxation, or cultural experiences.

Decoding Tulum: Navigating Between Town and Hotel Zone 

it's crucial to understand Tulum's layout. It's divided into two main areas: the town and the beach.

The town, isolated from the beach, offers significantly cheaper accommodations and dining options.

To reach the beach, there are two main roads: the main avenue, Av. Coba, and the newer road, Kukulkan, which is about two years old. Av. Coba leads directly to the intersection where the hotel zone splits, with the "public beach" to the right and the hotel zone to the left.

The Av. Kukulkan provides a direct route to the hotel zone, cutting out a portion of the journey.
