would do:

1. go to COBA (mayan ruins)

2. spend time visiting at least 5 cenotes

3. spend the night in a hammock on the beach in a tulum cabana

(oh, be sure to wake up to watch the sunrise) I did this last week for the first time in my life :)

4. visit the beaches of tulum, just absolutely beautiful!

 

Not do again

1. forget to put on sunscreen

2. if I were a bride, I'd remember # 1 if I was wearing a strapless dress :)

Hi,
Yes that is where I saw this. I am hoping to get things on here that are more specific to the area. AKA wish we had never eaten at XXX restaurant for our dinner. I edited the original post to reflect that.

BTW using the keys words that are listed in the originals threads heading will yield you 0 results. As the developer who created this forum has set the search engine up to not use common words such as those. It is a standard development technique that we do often in search engine generation. :)

Thanks, Carla

And which of the cenotes is your favorite?
Coba is one 45 minutes West of Tulum, in the jungle. (not tulum ruins) You can ride bikes ($3 dollar rentals) and enjoy serveral hours touring the property, then top it off by climbing the tallest pyrmaid in the yucatan! Then, there are a few cenotes that are just nearby, the perfect place to cool off. They have some crazy names, that I can't pronounce or even try to spell... Here is the fun part of the adventure....if you see a sign for one, stop and explore.... They are usually $5-$20 for entry...some are WAY more, like hidden worlds cenotes ($80 per person), but its a fun tour!

i have tons of fun videos from our adventures there, one of these days we will have a video section on our new blog so you can live the experience with us...

cheers!

OH, I almost forgot! WHALE SHARKS

 

IF you are in the region in the summer (june - august), you can go to Isla Mujeres and charter a trip to go and see the whale sharks migration.

 

We were swimming with them!

 

Check this blog link from my last experience (I made a little movie of this experience, underwater...check it out)

Matt, we are doing the coba tour you suggested. We are chartering two vans with jorge to see coba & visit a cenote. Thanks for the suggestion! My friends & family are so excited about it.

Wow, that's incredible! It's gotta be quite the experience to swim with one of those creatures. How many were there?

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
