  • Tulum

    So many people stay around Cancun and pay through the nose for a day trip to the Tulum Mayan ruins. You can actually rent cabanas/beach huts on the beaches adjoining Tulum - anything from just a hut with a hammock, to ones with more home comforts. You can then walk along to Tulum, finding yourself amongst the seafront ruins without going anywhere near the entry gate and the hoards of souvenir sellers. It also means you can have the ruins practically to yourself in the morning or evening, when the coach parties aren't there.
