About Tulum

You’ll find several places worth a visit along the Yucatán Peninsula of Mexico, but none quite like the holistic haven that is Tulum. Pristine white sandy beaches and lush tropical foliage are an immediate draw, but there’s so much more to this oasis in the Caribbean than meets the eye. Built-in 1200 AD by the Mayans, Tulum was taken over in the 15th century by the Spanish, leaving stunning archaeological ruins intact that can still be visited. Today, Tulum is a blend of culture, history, and food punctuated by tropical nature reserves and wellness-oriented hotels and restaurants. For a comprehensive Tulum travel guide, explore the wonders of this enchanting destination.

There is always something to do in Tulum, and if you’re looking for a slice of peace, you’ve come to the right place. While you can spend your time relaxing on the beach, more adventurous types can go snorkeling in cenotes, take a beachfront yoga class, or walk alongside wild monkeys in the Punta Laguna Nature Reserve. After experiencing a boom in recent years, there are dozens of upscale lodgings and health-conscious restaurant offerings throughout Tulum.

Best Time To visit

The best time of year to visit Tulum is from December to April, as you will experience warm temperatures and little rain. However, be prepared as these months are also the busiest months of the year, with the highest prices and most tourists. During the hurricane season, which runs from June to November, you will find that prices drop, but the weather is very hot and muggy.

If you want a strong flavor of the culture, visit Tulum in February during the week of Carnaval. You can taste both relaxed living in Tulum before the festival begins and enjoy the colorful traditional costumes, live music, and dancing in the streets. Other annual festivals include the Cabalgata de Los Reyes Magos in January and the Día de Muertos and Sea Turtle Festival in October.

What to expect

Visitors to Tulum can expect to find a mixture of modern amenities, ancient Mayan ruins, and some of the best beaches in the world. When it comes to accommodations, Tulum offers a variety of options for travelers, including health-conscious visitors. You’ll find everything from luxury resorts to beachfront villas along the coastline. Most upscale lodgings in Tulum are located along the beach, and for good reason – the views are worth every penny.

The Mayan ruins are situated to the north of the town, as are abundant nature reserves and cenotes. If you have the time, you should also take a day trip to the ancient ruins of Chichén Itzá, Cobá, and El Rey, which are close to Cancún.

Visitors can also expect many great restaurants serving delicious Mexican and international cuisine. With the emphasis on wellness in Tulum, you can find organic, sustainable, and vegan options with many ingredients sourced straight from the Mexican jungle. Grab an acai bowl for breakfast at Raw Love Beach, or go for an upscale Mexican restaurant experience at Ziggy’s or Atila. From tacos to superfood smoothies, there’s something to suit everyone’s tastes.

Things to know

While the name “Tulum” means wall, referring to the wall built around the Mayan archaeological site, the original name for the city was “Zama,” meaning sunrise. Tulum was built on a bluff over the water facing the East, making it the only Mayan city located on the beach in the Caribbean. It is in the prime position to greet the sun each day.

With its sacred Mayan roots, Tulum has remained a place of deep spirituality. It is host to numerous yoga and meditation retreats each year. You’ll also be able to enjoy holistic spas like the Yäan Healing Sanctuary, where treatments are based on indigenous Mayan healing and use fresh-picked sacred herbs to create an experience centered around the elements – earth, fire, water, and air.

Part of why Tulum has become so popular is that many believe that there is a high-frequency energy vortex located in the area. So, in the same way that people journey to Bali, Sedona, and Glastonbury on a spiritual quest, they also tap into Tulum’s healing powers. For this reason, it has become a cultural hub for artists and creative thinkers looking to escape the everyday world and discover the magic of this Mexican paradise.

how to get around

Tulum is relatively small, which makes getting around easy. However, the town of Tulum is a little over two miles away from the beach. The two are connected by a long, thin road called the Avenida Cobá. You’ll need to organize transportation along this road to reach either place – walking is an option, but not a good one.

Renting a bicycle is the best option for those looking to explore more of Tulum’s natural surroundings. You can typically borrow a bike from your hotel or rent one from a local bike shop at a very affordable rate. Biking is an excellent way to get around town quickly and easily, as the landscape is flat and easy to navigate.

Taxis are another convenient way to get around Tulum and are especially useful for those who don’t want to deal with the hassle of renting a car. Affordable taxis can be hailed from the center of town.

Finally, you have the option of ride-sharing in a van called a Colectivo. This option is very popular in Tulum because of its affordability and accessibility – Colectivos are easy to find in the town or near the beach.
