Puerto Morelos began as a fishing village. Over the past two decades, the Mayan Riviera has exploded from Cancun straight down the coast to Tulum. Puerto Morelos was largely ignored and and as a result has matured slowly and developed its own persona.
Most of the winter residents, or expats come from Canada, United States and Europe.
The population of Puerto Morelos in 1995 was approximately 800 people. Currently, we estimate that the population has grown to 15,000. As a result of this increase, the town now has a great array of good restaurants. Restaurants featuring Argentinian, Italian, Uruguayan, Mexican, Canadian and American cuisine provide delicious and safe dining. We have an English book store on the main square for your beach reading pleasure.
We have doctors, dentists and pharmacies in town. Taxis park in the main square and at the crossroads of the main highway that takes you to North to Cancun, or South to Playa del Carmen or Tulum.

Tours can be arranged to visit Mayan ruins, cenotes, underground caves or a multitude of parks that are in this area, such as XOXOMILCO, Xcaret, Xel Ha as well as cenotes along the Ruta de Cenotes which is very close to Puerto Morelos.
CrocoCun Zoo is virtually in our back yard and provides an interesting afternoon, with a personal english speaking guide showcasing animals from the area. Inexpensive and very informative. |
