Ahhh this post is making me so anxious to get down to Mexico!! Oh, Tulum.. Seeing your photos brings back so many good memories. Like you, I loved this place, especially because we had it all to ourselves. Boracay is still my favorite though :. The first time I have been there, I had no idea I could actually access the beach from the site, and ended up jumping in the ocean in my undies because I just could not resist.
Having said that, even then I knew that Tulum is not the best beach I have ever seen. But then, I am from Sardinia so I do have very high expectations when it comes to beautiful beaches and crystal clear waters. Then I visited Tulum again in January and in February and the beach below the site could not even be accessed and it still is the case, from reports I have been reading online because it is full of seaweed.
It was like that all around the area. I spent a day at the beach in Tulum Playa and did not even get close to the water as I was grossed out with the seaweed and the horrible odor that came from it.
I think the way we see a beach and a place really depends on our mood. Any place looks quite incredible if it is deserted. In fact, I would love it if you visited! Ah, that sucks. It probably only was one of the best beaches ever for you because you came early and beat the crowds. The water there was even clearer than it was in Tulum and you pretty much have the beach to yourself until late afternoon.
When we were the only people on the beach and in the ocean, it was incredible Hey…inspires curious imaginings about the Mayans who lived here…this was their super awesome beachfront villa spot! So, question: what time did those 5 million people show up? The iguana tourists are cool, but your later images do show that the site and beach are really popular.
If the seaweed is so prevalent and odorous as well, how could this be your favorite beach? I understand it is a natural thing, and I am sure Tulum is wonderful as a whole, but still..
It seems to come and go. I will be there in a couple of weeks so hopefully it is not a distraction. That looks incredible! Now the interesting thing is, is that I was actually in Tulum in August, and I guess that they just began to have a major seaweed problem so when I saw the beach, it was mostly covered in seaweed.
Seems like the seaweed has been there for the best part of the year. Such a shame considering how beautiful the beach is without it!
Reading this comments while looking at Tankah Bay in Tulum…I agree with you, one of my favorite beaches, but…. Thanks dear for this great and informative blog post!
This excellent post is perfect timing for us as we are just planning to make a beach tour. Once again, thanks for the amazing list. Your pictures are splendidddd and it is like a heaven on earth!! Is this the Playa paraiso beach?? I am planning for a trip to Cancun on Nov12, and i would want to spend 1 full day in Tulum. Any suggestions??
Thanks in advance :. Gorgeous but seaweed! Oh no. Any new reports on the current status of the seaweed problem? Planning a trip in a few weeks and am having hesitations. FYI, Sardinia beaches are amazing. Not only was the water the clearest I have ever seen it was like a magnifying glass.
I love your site and the way you describe Tulum. Actualy is my favorite beach by far too. Do you have any recommendations as to where to stay in Tulum?
Are all of the beaches equally as nice? Great blog! Lauren, you are a refreshing fountain of information. I love Mexico!
