Six places in the Riviera Maya that you can’t miss

Posted on May 31, 2023 by Eduardo

Although its 1,000-year-old ruins are worth a visit, there are more than six places in the Riviera Maya, the Mayan influence is not the reason for the recent increase in tourism.

Tulum’s New Age atmosphere, jungle restaurants and white sand beaches have made it the warmest place on Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula.

But before starting this post, we invite you to read our articles about how to go to Tulum and how to get to Bacalar.

Six places in the Riviera Maya that you can’t miss
Yoga in Sanara
The oceanfront yoga studio at this eco-friendly complex features sliding glass doors that open to allow air to caress your skin during practice. The facility is open from 8:30 a.m. to 10:15 a.m. or 5:00 p.m.

Tacos at La Eufemia

In front of the sea, it allows to be relaxed all day; being spoiled with a refreshing drink to the beach oriya. You can’t miss the fish tacos or the freshly squeezed orange juice.


Dinner at Mezzanine

If you’re looking for an elegant evening, most people agree; with the project that a couple from Brooklyn started many years ago.

And although the food is good quality, the wood-fired ribs are exquisite. The best fusion of Thai-Mexican food is found in Mezzanine, where Thai curry pad and massaman rival the view of the waves.

Drinks at Gitano

The influence of New York in many parts of Tulum is not overlooked. This bar surrounded by living nature is worth a visit. You have to take into account that this is a mezcaleria, therefore, the choice of liquor is somewhat limited. On Friday nights you can see Gitano become a party.

Very Mexican breakfast at Zamas

Many consider that Zamas’ breakfasts are worth a visit. Many brag about the huevos rancheros, but we passed by a special chilaquiles (fried tortilla strips covered in salsa, cheese and fried eggs) that were worth ruining the benefits of that morning’s yoga class. It was worth missing lunch and dinner.


Burritos at Burrito Amor

People get excited about the authentic Mexican feeling. The food is definitely good, but cheap enough that you almost don’t care.

Opt for the recently opened Burrito Amor (shown below), which, although touristy, is one of the most outstanding meals for both breakfast and lunch.
