A Riviera Maya is one of the most renowned coastal areas of the Mexican Caribbean, stretching over 130 kilometers of dream coastline in the state of Quintana Roo. If I had to define this international tourist destination in simple words, I would say: luxury tourist services, Mayan mysteries, and dream beaches of white sands and crystal-clear waters.
In recent years, many of the towns that make up this area of excellence in tourism have become popular, so the beaches of Puerto Morelos, Tulum, and Playa del Carmen are not unfamiliar to anyone. However, there are many others that still await discovery to enchant and captivate travelers with their undeniable exoticism and the wilder side of the Caribbean’s natural world. To think that everything in the Riviera has been uncovered is a big mistake; this coastal area is waiting to surprise us with exclusive paradises that are utterly irresistible, where you will simply want to stay forever!
Surely, you may be wondering what these destinations are that have not yet turned into places overrun by crowds. Well, how about I tell you that one of them had only 58 inhabitants in 2010? This fact adds to the intrigue, doesn’t it? Enough with the riddles! This place is called Punta Maroma.
This village is located in the Municipality of Solidaridad, yes, the same one that is the head of the city of Playa del Carmen. But this is not the main gem. The exoticness and virgin beauty of the Caribbean belong to Punta Maroma. Where is this place? Just 10 kilometers northwest of Playa del Carmen and about 30 kilometers from Cancun International Airport.
If you are asked where to go in the city, just say the most beautiful beach in the Riviera Maya and believe me, you won’t be exaggerating. Why? Because Punta Maroma has sands as white and fine as talcum powder, translucent turquoise-blue waters with almost imperceptible movements that turn into a natural swimming pool. And external beauty is not everything; at the bottom of the sea, the most beautiful and colorful coral reefs in all of Mexico are hidden. Therefore, practicing diving and snorkeling will become an irresistible necessity. Did you know that, beneath the waters of the Caribbean Sea lies a part of the Mesoamerican Reef System?
In addition to all this unprecedented natural spectacle, Maroma possesses a calm and tranquility that seem to have completely disappeared from vacation beach destinations. The radiant white sandy shores are almost deserted, with only a few hotel chains that lend class and sophistication to the area, but nothing like Cancun. The scarcity is the secret of the local tranquility.
In Punta Maroma, you can relax all day in a hammock while admiring the beauty of the Caribbean, go diving and snorkeling, indulge yourself with morning massages facing the sea, and savor local culinary delights. What delights? Coco Maroma is one of the best alternatives for your palate, starting to immerse you in the magic of Caribbean flavors. What does this dish have? Seafood and lobsters in coconut sauce.
Enjoy the best vacation of your life in the most genuine paradise of the Riviera Maya. Discover Punta Maroma!
