Rain is bound to happen whenever you’re in the tropics...especially during “Wet Season, “ which for the Riviera Maya tends to be the summer. But don’t let a little (or a lot) of rain put a damper on your vacation...instead, let it exhilarate you to SLOW DOWN and discover new experiences.
Enjoy some downtime with a good book and a glass of wine (or cerveza, or margarita). And savor a little break from the heat!
Spa Day-enjoy a relaxing massage, a mani/pedi, or a facial
Shop til you drop: Centro Maya, Plaza de Americas or grab an umbrella and stroll 5th Avenue...all in Playa del Carmen (and if it’s a complete downpour, run into Quinta Alegria plaza located on 5th avenue)
