Tulum is the last town before the Si'an Kaan Biosphere. The road is barely two lanes and there appears to be no speed limit, which is even more frightening when you opted for no insurance on your rental car (sorry Dad). You can hardly see hotel signs from the road as it is overgrown with palms and brush but when walking on the beach you see all the charming cabana styled, thatched roof hotels and restaurants. There is an an eco-chic theme throughout the town and yoga studios are interspersed among hotels along the beach.
It also has some of the best eats. A couple of transplants from New York have opened up tiny, outdoor restaurants with unique gourmet menus. Our favorite is called "Hartwood", owned by this precious couple, with pictures of this restaurant:
But on day three, after a long day of fishing in Ascension Bay we went to "Mateo's" where we devoured the yummiest grilled shrimp burrito, steak fajitas, and fresh guacamole.
Mmmmm, a mango mojito- a risky move, I used to be allergic to mangoes, but was well worth the risk
