The Yucatan Peninsula lies between the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean Sea. It is made up
of the states Quintana Roo and Yucatan. I spent a week exploring this region including the
coastal city of Playa del Carmen, the colonial town of Valladolid, as well as several smaller
villages in the Yucatan Jungle and archaeological sites such as Chichen Itza. Here is a list of
experiences and things that I learned, saw, and felt during my week on the peninsula.
Holbox Island is situated on the Caribbean, 2 hours drive from Cancun Airport and 30 min in a ferry. It is a true paradise, This is place to truly relax and enjoy the peace and quiet.
