3. Playa Pescadores
Moving farther down the sand, you’ll arrive at Playa Pescadores, another jaw-droppingly stunning beach in Tulum. Playa Pescadores shares the same perks as the other beaches previously mentioned: uninterrupted views out to the crystal-colored sea, soft white sand, palm trees, and even a glimpse of the cliffs where the ruins are in the distance.
4. X’Cacel Beach
For a little extra legwork comes a whole lot of extra reward. X’cacel beach may not be the closest beach to Tulum proper, but it’s close enough to make the trip, and you’ll find that you may be one of the only ones there. X’cacel is a turtle hot spot near Tulum, located between Chemuyil and Xel-Ha water park. It’s a relatively remote beach, which makes it a little more challenging to find. But that is a good thing, especially when it comes to turtle conservation.
