Recently, our friend, Julie, had the good fortune to vacation in The Mexican Riviera. It was our good fortune that she took The Fresh Lobster along and sent us back these photos.

The Fresh Lobster in Mexico

Here’s Julie, ready to jump in to those warm Mexican waters.  Julie told us that she was a bit surprised – well, actually, quite surprised to spot a 3 foot long baraccuda in the water.  She didn’t spend too long in the water after that.

We learned that The Mexican Riviera refers collectively to twenty cities and lagoons lying on the western coast of Mexico. Although there are long distances between these cities, they are often collectively referred to as the Mexican Riviera because of their many oceanfront resorts and their popularity among tourists. We did a little research and found these top 10 things to do while traveling in The Mexican Riviera.

1.   Swimming by the only archaeological site located by the sea in Tulum.
2. Interact with Mexican culture in one of the most spectacular theme parks in the world, Xcaret.
3. Snorkel in the largest natural aquarium in the world at Xel-Ha.
4. Get the perfect suntan in Akumal’s silky beaches.
5. Explore the mystery of the Mayan caves in Aktun Chen.
6. Stroll along “La Quinta Avenida” of Playa del Carmen and enjoy the wide variety of bars, restaurants and shops.
7. Discover a Mayan village.
8. Discover the underwater world, snorkeling and diving, at the largest coral reef on the northern hemisphere
9. Get in touch with one of the greatest biodiversities in the world on the Biosphere Reserve of Sian Ka’an.
10.

Relax and experience a Mayan treatment in one of the many spas in the area.
