    Beaches from paradise

    Much of the fame of the Yucatan has to do with its beaches. Known throughout the world, tourists are mainly attracted to the beaches of Cancun, Playa del Carmen and Isla Mujeres. But because of its Caribbean geography, there are many more beaches to discover like Cozumel Island, the Isle of Holbox, and especially those of Tulum. These beaches combine the landscape of beaches with fine white sand, clear water and a surveillance tower with the only Mayan archaeological site discovered on the Caribbean coast.Yucatan peninsula beaches.
