Playa del Carmen es uno de los sitios más visitados de la Riviera Maya, y en general del sureste mexicano.

Es en sí mismo un foco turístico, pero además se encuentran a su alrededor varios atractivos principalmente relacionados con ecoturismo , turismo de aventura y playas.

Don’t speak Spanish? No problem! I leave my browser in Spanish (or whatever language the country I am in) so I have to read the language more. It’s a fun game for me, I learn more that way! The title of this post and following translation are from the Playa del Carmen description on Wiki.

Playa del Carmen is one of the most visited sites in the Riviera Maya, and in general of the Mexican southeast. It is in itself a tourist destination, but also are several attractions around mainly related to ecotourism , adventure tourism and beaches.”

Yesterday I checked out the beach & 5th Ave where all the travellers, resort & clubs are. Met two babes from Argentina on the beautiful beach and we swam, tanned and had drinks in the sunshine near the hotel above.

There are so many bars you can get massages at! For the record DO NOT get a massage after a night of drinking. All the toxins will come right out and you will want to put your head in a vice. Trust me, I learned the HARD way.

Swam w/ Rodrigo, dreamboat from Argentina. See video below. Yikes! 😉

On my way home I stopped by Reina Roja, house of the Red Queen for some wifi and a Piña colada. I’m planning to book a room  there for one night before I leave. It’s an amazingly sexy, cool place! This is the bar downstairs. Today I check out the rooms and the roof top pool & bar 😉
