2. Xcaret

Playa del Carmen’s first water park surprises us with new adventures every year. Xcaret has managed to encourage environmental awareness among kids and adults from the very beginning, and to foster a love for Mexican traditions with live shows featuring an explosion of folklore and culture. Must do’s at the park include the island of jaguars and the butterfly garden for animal lovers, and the underground river and snorkeling in the Caribbean waters for the more adventurous. Mainly children – but also their companions – will enjoy the natural wonders and cultural events that Xcaret has to offer.
