Hotels in Yucatan Peninsula Mexico, Mexico

The Yucatan Peninsula in southeastern Mexico borders the Caribbean Sea and Gulf of Mexico, famous for ancient Maya ruins like Chichen Itza and over 6,000 cenotes (sinkholes). Its tropical climate stays warm year-round-around 80°F (27°C) average-with a dry season from November to April perfect for climbing El Castillo pyramid or swimming at Tulum's beachside ruins, and a rainy season from May to October when you can snorkel in crystal-clear cenotes like Ik Kil without crowds. Winter brings clear skies for diving at Cozumel's Palancar Reef, while summer invites kayaking in the Sian Ka'an Biosphere Reserve's lagoons.
