Yucatán
Cenotes, Maya ruins, and Caribbean beaches — your guide to the Yucatán Peninsula.
Our Guide to Yucatán
-
Flair
Colorful, history-packed, and seriously great for road trips — the Yucatán Peninsula has a little of everything.
-
Best Time to Visit
Aim for the dry season, November through April — you'll get sunshine without the humidity and rain.
-
How Long to Stay
We recommend ten to fourteen days to work your way around the whole peninsula at a relaxed pace.
-
Price Level
Moderate overall — but expect to pay a bit more than in other parts of Mexico.
-
Food
Don't leave without trying Cochinita Pibil — a slow-cooked pork dish that's totally unique to this region.
-
Getting Around
Rent a car. It's really the only way to move freely between ruins, cenotes, and beaches on your own schedule.
