Why go
This Riviera Maya outing moves from coast to freshwater and back to an open beach. Start at Puerto Aventuras Beach, where entry through the controlled community gate requires an eligible venue arrangement and access code. Continue by road to Cenote Azul, Riviera Maya for a different swimming setting, then finish on the broad shore of Xpu-Há Beach. Allow time for the two transfers, entrances and parking, and confirm each place's current access rules before leaving. The final beach stop can be as active or restful as conditions allow; skip swimming if weather or water conditions are poor.
