Where ancient seaside ruins meet sandy beaches and turquoise waters. Perched along the Caribbean coast, Tulum was a major Maya port city, enclosed by defensive walls and facing the sea where trade routes converged. The cliff-edge El Castillo rises above the site, providing sweeping views over turquoise waters and the surrounding landscape. Nearby, the Temple of the Frescoes displays vivid murals depicting Maya myth and cosmology, while the Temple of the Descending God features a dramatic figure symbolising a deity in descent. With its rare combination of sea-facing ruins, vibrant trade history, and beachside calm, Tulum offers a striking blend of human achievement and natural beauty.
