Playa Del Carmen : Playa del Carmen (Xaman Ha' or Pláaya in Modern Maya) is a city on the coast of the Caribbean Sea, in the northeast of the Mexican state of Quintana Roo. In the 2005 census, the city had a population of about 100,383 people and it is rapidly growing in population. Playa del Carmen is named for Our Lady of Mount Carmel, who is the patron saint of Cancún.

Tulum : Tulum's greatest attraction is its location. It stands on a bluff facing the rising sun looking out on views of the Caribbean that are nothing less than spectacular. In Maya, Tulum means "Wall", and the city was christened thus because it is a walled city; one of the very few the ancients ever built. The Maya site may have been formerly also known by the name Zama, meaning city of Dawn.

Xel-ha : Xel-Ha is aproximately 30 miles south of Playa del Carmen. A real natural wonder. This location has something for everyone. From swimming with the dolphins to the Path of Consiousness. This self sustaining eco-park has beaches, rivers, and an incredible variety of tropical birds, fish and lush flora and fauna.
