In this Mexican Peninsula, turquoise waters and white sands are abundant, Mayan ruins are tucked among dense forests, adventure activities are available, and colonial buildings dot small villages. It is also home to some spectacular wildlife, and the well-known Riviera Maya!
Yucatan, Campeche, Quintana Roo, and Tabasco are the four states that make up the peninsula. Along its coastal areas, you can expect to see everything tropical associated with the term “Caribbean”, which makes it no surprise that Yacutan state is an increasingly popular holiday destination.
Here’s our list of the best and most fun things to do in Yacutan, Mexico
