We call Cancun the Las Vegas of Mexico. To avoid the all the tourist and expensive hotels during August we decided to camp further south in Puerto Morelos rather than in Cancun. We were surprises to see how flat the Yucatan is. We drove across it in one day. Traveling down towards Belize we noticed that the backpacker's haven is actually Tulum which you will see in my next entry. A large beach city with cheaper accommodations. The beach there is just as beautiful as in Cancun.
The white sand beaches here are amazing. The white sand is actually made from coral and is a natural air conditioner for the beach. The ocean water is picturesque although the seaweed here is black and covers the ocean's floor. Some hotels net there beaches to prevent the seaweed from flourishing. Ivy loved swimming here and just for clarification she is not a drug sniffing dog. (See photo above)
