Cenotes - there are thousands of these amazing little watering holes all around the Yucatan. Many are close to Tulum, some even within walking distance from town! You can swim, snorkel, and even scuba dive at many of the spots.

Chichen Itza - one of our favorite ruins we've been to! Highly suggest making the trip here if you've never been before. It's about a 2 hr drive from Tulum. You can drive there if you have a car, go on a private or open tour, or take the bus there from town.

ATV/Adventure Parks - offroad, zipline, and visit underground cenotes all in one adventure. Typically a 1/2 day tour. We have booked with this company before.

Tulum Ruins - located right next to the beach in Tulum, very easy to get to.

Beach - there are plenty of different areas you can go along the coast, the beaches are public with private areas for hotels. The beach is about 3 miles from the Aldea Zama area depending on where you're coming from/going to.

Beach Hotels - there are several nice hotels located directly on the beach where you can get drinks/food, hang out, go to a nightclub, etc...

A few we like...

Casa Malca (Pablo Escobar's old house, now an extremely nice hotel)

Nomade

Papaya Playa Project

Kanan Tulum - very cool sunset baar spot

Walking around town - lots of fun shops and restaurants to check out in town. The town is pretty small, you can walk/bike the entire area.

Holistika - a really cool hotel dedicated to art, yoga & wellness services. Go there for a yoga class or drop by for breakfast/coffee and stroll around their art walk. Very unique!
