Playa Progreso
8 Hannah Angle

There's a neat little gym on the beach with old-fashioned weights and machines, but it's a great spot for taking photos and getting in a simple workout.

Playa Norte Celestun
8 Kerem ESEN.

Yucatan boasts of one of its most magnificent beaches, which is considered as one of the best in the area. This beach is perfect for families with children as it offers a safe and secure environment for everyone to enjoy.

Playa Sisal
10 Sarinya Kwanthong.

The beach offers of pristine white sand and warm, shallow waters that vary depending on the day. On some days, there may be a presence of sargasso, but it is significantly less compared to other beaches in Yucatán. The afternoon breeze can be quite strong, but it adds to the refreshing atmosphere of the place. However, the tour to the spring may not be worth the cost as it is a short distance away and not as picturesque as expected. During my visit in late April, there were hardly any birds to spot, and the shallow waters may not be suitable for kayaking. Despite these minor setbacks, the beach charges a flat rate of 500 pesos per person, regardless of the activities you choose to do. It is unfortunate that the locals do not take care of their resources, and the once-thriving fishing industry is now limited to expensive and rare catches, with no variety like other ports along the Yucatán coast. Nevertheless, the beach remains a beautiful destination to unwind and relax.

Faro El Palmar
8 Lila Cruz

The beach isn't too far away, although the road may be closed. However, when it's dry, it's incredibly peaceful. The location is stunning, but unfortunately, there is absolutely nothing there. The lighthouse was closed, and there wasn't a single person around. Despite that, the scenery was so breathtaking that it made the entire trip worthwhile.

Playa Puerto Abrigo
10 Liora Aviram

The beach was truly stunning. Our camping experience was made even better by the soothing sound of the waves that greeted us every morning. However, we were disturbed twice by a policeman who warned us to keep our valuables safe. Unfortunately, the lack of amenities such as showers made our stay a bit challenging. We had to travel to Progreso to freshen up, but even then, we encountered some issues with the public showers. Thankfully, we found a solution by purchasing showers from vendors along the promenade for a reasonable price of 15 peso.

Playa Chuburna Puerto
