About Tulum

After you make your way from Chiquila to Tulum, you will find yourself in a tranquil beach town within quick reach of rich historic ruins and cultural touchstones. The town is split into two small halves, one side being the more popular Tulum beach strip. This area offers access to the beach, plenty of accommodation for travelers, and is where visitors will navigate to the nearby Sian Ka’an Biosphere.

<show-more> The quieter half, Tulum town, is slowly growing in population and offers restaurants, shops, and other general amenities. The entirety of Tulum has a relaxed, bohemian atmosphere, with the spotlight on the natural splendor of the surrounding area.

Just outside of Tulum Town are the Tulum Ruins, an example of well-preserved Mayan settlements that visitors can explore to learn more about this ancient civilization. On some days, the road to the ruins features a flea market and stalls where travelers can find street food and local souvenirs.

Tulum played an important role in the Mayan civilization, as it was once a significant trading hub and export center for precious stones such as jade and obsidian. The area is also thought to be one of the last cities to be inhabited by the Maya before the Spanish conquest. While it was rare for the Mayans to construct walled cities, Tulum’s ruins offer a glimpse of some of the ancient stone walls that would have encircled this key city.

Today, the city is a popular destination for travelers eager to learn more about this rich history and culture while enjoying pristine sandy beaches and turquoise waters.

Visit Paradise Beach

Just a quick 15-minute car ride from the center of Tulum town, Paradise Beach is one of the most popular beaches in the area. Paradise Beach is a long stretch of coastline boasting white sand and brilliant blue waters where visitors can enjoy swimming, snorkeling, and relaxing in the sun. The area also features some tropical restaurants and beach bars where you can sample the local cuisine and have a drink in the sand.

Explore the Tulum Ruins

These preserved Mayan Ruins are only a few minutes off of the main road into Tulum Town, and for an entry fee of $5 per person, visitors can explore the ancient stone structures and learn more about Tulum’s historical significance. Plus, there are flea markets and local vendors selling snacks and refreshments along the road into the ruins on many days of the week.

The ruins highlight that Tulum was once a rare example of a Mayan walled city, which is also where the name of the city comes from (Tulum meaning “wall” or “palisade.”) Before it was called Tulum, the Mayans called the city “Zama” which referred to the dawn.

Witness the Gran Cenote

As the name suggests, the Gran Cenote is an incredibly large cenote located only 10 minutes from the Tulum ruins or downtown Tulum. Here, visitors can swim among the stalactites, caverns, and other incredible rock formations without needing to scuba dive (unlike many others of the world’s famous cave systems.)

There are restrooms, lockers, and a restaurant on-site, and snorkel equipment is available for rent. Guided trekking tours can also explore the surrounding jungle. </show-more>
