One of the world’s most popular holiday destinations, the Riviera Maya Mexico is known for its all inclusive resorts and beautiful beaches. If you love snorkeling and diving, it’s also one of the world’s best destinations, offering plenty of options for beginners and experts. Apart from an extensive coral reef that offers great diving, the area is also known for its sinkholes which were caused by underground caves falling in. The Maya were convinced the caves led to the underworld, although for today’s diving enthusiasts, they make for a fascinating underwater experience. The clear blue waters off the coast are home to a variety of marine life, and it’s not uncommon to see dolphins and whales off the coast. Away from the underwater action, this area of Mexico has a variety of accommodation, plenty of nightlife and shopping, as well as several nearby historic sites.
