The Riviera Maya, A Mexican paradise unveiled.

Few places in the world are as amazing as the Riviera Maya. This 120 kilometers-long coastal strip borders the bright turquoise waters of the Mexican Caribbean; it is halfway along the North-East coast of the Yucatan peninsula in the state of Quintana Roo and it ends at a village named Punta Allen. Numerous dazzling white sand beaches slope down to the gentle waves, and calm and solitude are the key note on many of them.

Practically impenetrable, the Riviera Maya is home to a wealth of flora and fauna, and the jungle also conceals some geological formations found nowhere else in the world: the Cenotes, freshwater pools of different sizes and capricious shapes, created by subterranean rivers that have come up to the surface after millions of years underground. The world's second largest coral reef is also located off the coast of the Riviera Maya, making the area perfect for diving. Hundreds of marine fauna species can be found here, including multi-colored tropical fish, sponges, starfish and the different types of coral that make up the fragile, spectacular Maya Reef.
