This sunny beach destination is popular for its close proximity to Cancun, Riviera Maya and Cozumel, but there's so much more to love about this bustling ocean town. Spend your time in Playa del Carmen sunbathing on the sands, or venture inland for a day of shopping and touring, as you wander the coblestoned stretch of Fifth Avenue, packed with unique souveniers, artisan crafts and restraunts serving a variety of cuisine, both local and international.
