Getting there from the anchor

If you are arriving by ADO bus, the main terminal is a solid 20-minute walk inland, so a taxi is recommended, especially with luggage.

Walking is feasible if you're staying nearby and have light bags, but the Mexican sun can be intense.

Local colour

Skip the tourist traps on Fifth Avenue for dinner. Wander a few blocks inland, towards Avenida 10 or 15, and you'll find more authentic taquerias and small restaurants where locals actually eat. Look for places packed with families, not just foreigners.

Also, be aware that while many places accept dollars, you'll almost always get a better rate paying in pesos, especially at smaller establishments away from the main drag near Nicoletta Playa Del Carmen.
