Tulum has grown from a small beach town to a hype destination that attracts people from all over the world, especially luxury travelers. A few years ago, people came to Tulum for its beautiful white sand beaches and turquoise blue waters, and for its Mayan archaeological site that stands imposingly in front of the sea.

Of course, today, this is still one of Tulum's greatest attractions, but this sublime destination has much more to offer, and that is why it has become a worldwide vacation hotspot.

Undoubtedly, traveling to Tulum is a great experience, and here are some reasons to buy your tickets and spend a few days in this beautiful Mexican Caribbean paradise.

Mindblowing Natural Beauties

As we have said, the beautiful beaches of Tulum are the main attraction, but the destination has many other spectacular natural beauties that will leave you speechless.

Tulum is located in the Yucatán Peninsula, where there are over 2,500 cenotes. Also, in the area you will find underground rivers and cave systems to explore. 

Other bodies of water, such as lagoons, are not far from here. Just outside of Tulum is the impressive Kaan Luum lagoon with colors that look like something out of a fantasy, and right in its center is a cenote. Incredible!

Of course, we must also mention the Sian Ka'an Biosphere Reserve, the largest protected area in the Mexican Caribbean and was designated a World Heritage Site by UNESCO.

Fascinating Mayan Culture

By visiting Tulum, you will access some of the most fascinating archaeological sites in the Yucatan Peninsula. First, there is the archaeological site of Tulum that rises on a cliff facing the turquoise sea. A postcard you will never forget.

Nearby is also the fabulous ancient pre-Hispanic city of Coba, where the highest Mayan pyramid in the region is located. To access these ruins, you can walk or rent a bike at the entrance and take a short ride through the jungle, making the experience even more fun.

Finally, just 2 hours from Tulum, you can also visit Chichen Itza, the most famous archaeological site of the Mayan culture and one of the 7 new wonders of the world.
