Puerto Morelos a Charming Town
|
Puerto Morelos |
Caribbean
port of the Yucatan Peninsula. It is located between the tourist centers of
Cancun and Playa del Carmen in the Riviera Maya, but retains part of its
original fishing village character.
Puerto Morelos Reef National Park
Nestled in
the Mesoamerican Reef System - the second largest barrier reef in the world -,
here you can perform various water sports, such as diving, windsurfing and
kayaking, with snorkeling being preferred by the hundreds of corals and
tropical fish that you will see around you , creating a multicolored landscape.

Reef National Park |
Surrounded
by the jungle and with crystal clear waters, you can swim, dive, get on zip
lines and even rent bicycles or ATVs. Our favorites are La Noria - perfect for
diving, swimming or sunning on its floating platform - and Verde Lucero, an
open-air cenote with small caves to explore.
Although
the growth of the region has ended a large part of the mangrove of Puerto
Morelos, you can still observe various species of animals, reptiles, plants and
birds from the viewpoints that are on the access road to the town. Close your
eyes for a moment and let yourself be amazed by the amount of different sounds
that the wind carries.
