THE QUINESSENTIAL MEXICAN CARIBBEAN BEACH

Playa Xpu-Ha is a fantastic, well-kept secret nestled between the more popular beaches of Playa del Carmen and Tulum. Located in a small inlet, the water here is calmer than at other Riviera Maya beaches, making it ideal for swimming and consistently clear and inviting. Playa Xpu-Ha boasts an idyllic setting with incredibly fine, soft sand, swaying palm trees, and warm turquoise water. The beach is long and wide, providing plenty of space to find a peaceful spot. Being less known to tourists, it offers a prime opportunity for those seeking a more serene beach experience in the magical Riviera Maya, away from crowded beaches and loud beach clubs.

THE PERFECT DAY AT Playa Xpu Ha

  • SEAWEED

    Since 2010, south-facing beaches in the Caribbean (including Playa Xpu Ha) have had significant amounts of seaweed washing ashore. This occurs most often between May and August.

  • CALM SEAS

    Though there is a very small risk of hurricanes, and there are more rainy days, the ocean is much calmer May through November. We particularly love the Caribean in October and November, as the ocean is in a postcard state if there are clear skies.

  • WIND

    Look for days where the wind will be blowing from behind the beach towards the water, as well as days with little to no wind.

  • CLEAR SKIES

    Sunny days are more likely between December to April, however visits during May through November are underrated, with calmer seas.
