Climate

At the southern tip of the world’s second largest promontory, the Los Cabos region of the Baja California Peninsula has a tropical climate, with high temperatures and low annual rainfall. January to March is a good time to visit, when nature blossoms, marine life plays and Pacific rollers lure the surfing crowd. In Yucatán, Riviera Maya has a subtropical climate and sunny days throughout the year. The high season falls from December to April, when it’s mainly dry with intermittent northerly winds. July and August are extremely hot and humid – it’s also the start of the hurricane season, while from September to November, temperatures drop. The rainy and hurricane seasons end in December.

Chichen Itza

Chichen Itza is famous the world over as a mark of the ancient Mayan civilisation. Chichen Itza translates to ‘mouth of the well of the Itzaes’, in reference to a natural well that the iconic pyramid structure is located besides, a vital source of water for the ancient Mayans. The purpose or symbolism of Chichen Itza is the subject of much debate, but research suggests it was likely used for ceremonies in honour of the rain god, Chaac.

Chichen Itza
Kohunlich

The most extensively studied of all the Mayan sites, Kohunlich was founded around 200BC and has stood the test of time. Elaborately designed, this settlement continued to expand to become a central aspect of Mayan civilisation. The site features the famous Temple Of Masks, thought to have been dedicated to the sun god. The stucco design and humanised faces of the masks have been perfectly preserved to seamlessly showcase Mayan art and architecture.

Kohunlich
Uxmal

The Temples of Uxmal is considered one of the most important archaeological sites of the Mayan culture. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, Uxmal is known as the ‘Thrice Built City’ and gives a visual indication to the intelligent design synonymous with Mayan culture, and much about their daily and religious lifestyles. The temples include the Temple Of The Sorcerer, subject of one of the more famous Mayan myths.

Uxmal
Campeche

A colonial city, Campeche is home to traditional coblestone streets, expansive plazas, a beautiful church and brightly coloured houses. Located within city walls, Campeche feels like stepping back in time but represents a thriving, contemporary town within easy reach of centuries of Mayan history.

Campeche
Calakmul

The largest Mayan city in Mexico, Calakmul is one of the most impressive settings in which to appreciate the scale of Mayan architecture. Climb to the top of the imposing Great Pyramid for a sweeping, panoramic view of the ruins and surrounding jungle. If you would like an even greater aerial view, why not book a helicopter tour?

Calakmul
Tulum

The town of Tulum is an ancient Mayan port but is today known for its pristine beaches and azure waters. The archaeological zone is one of the few Mayan sites to be located on the coastline and climbing the statuesque structures provides panoramic views of the Caribbean Sea. Combining history and beach life, Tulum is a great choice for anyone seeking to explore Mexican history without losing site of the shore.

Tulum
Contoy Island Nature Reserve

For a sense of private island luxury, why not charter a private yacht to explore the stunning nature reserve off the shore of one of Mexico’s picturesque islands. The island is only accessible to those granted exclusive access passes, these will be issued prior to your departure, so you can explore the tiny, lush island at your leisure. Spot the native birds, reptiles and marine life in their private habitat.

Contoy Island Nature Reserve
Shopping

A stroll along Quinta Avenida, should satisfy any retail urges, it’s home to a variety of boutiques and galleries as well as stores selling crafts and the pre-requisite souvenirs. Look out for Mexican silver - Mexican silversmiths are master artisans creating intricate pieces with exquisite designs, often inlayed with jade, turquoise, onyx, and other stones - their jewellery is some of the best and least expensive to be found in the world.

Shopping
Wildlife

As well as fabulous marine life, such as Whale Sharks and Sea Turtles, Yucatán’s national parks and biosphere reserves are home to all manner of wildlife and countless species of birds. UNESCO-listed Sian Ka’an in Tulum is a prime example, where you can drift along lagoons and mangrove canals in search of sunbathing crocs and tropical birds. Other creatures in the reserve include Marine Turtles, Spider and Howler Monkeys, jaguars, pumas, ocelots, tapirs, flamingos, toucans and the rare Jabiru Stork.

Wildlife
Adventure & Watersports

Yucatán offers many different types of watersports, including windsurfing, kitesurfing and sensational snorkelling and diving sites on the Great Mayan Reef, the planet’s second biggest coral reef system and home to a plethora of marine species. Also on the Riviera Maya are the eco-adventure parks of Xcaret and Xel-Há – fantastic for families. On the Baja California Peninsula, golf and marlin fishing are big draws, with regular tournaments on land and sea. Indeed, the whole area around Los Cabos is a haven for outdoor fun, whether you fancy surfing, diving, water-skiing or windsurfing.
