The Magical Towns of the Mexican Caribbean

The Magical Town Program, run by the Mexican Department of Tourism, aims to highlight places in Mexico with significant attributes, legends, history, and landmarks that show Mexico's identity in each corner. As of now there are 132 Magical Towns in Mexico, three of which are on the Mexican Caribbean.

  • Isla Mujeres: A beautiful island that you can reach by taking a 20-minute ferry ride from Cancun. This eco-tourist destination offers water activities, tours to explore the reefs and the temple of the Goddess Ixchel, swimming with sharks, and much more.
  • Bacalar: This town is laid out around a lagoon known as the “Lagoon of Seven Colors,” due to the different shades of blue that you can glimpse in its waters. This place is located two and a half hours from Tulum; here, you can enjoy activities such as diving, swimming, and snorkeling.
  • Tulum: Named a "Magical Town" in 2015, Tulum is considered a historical place that's especially important for the Maya people's identity; it's home to the Archaeological Zone of Tulum, whose peculiarity is that its temples are facing the Caribbean Sea.
