Puerto Aventuras, Mexico
Puerto Aventuras is the sports fishing center for Mexico’s Caribbean Coast. Located just fifteen minutes from Playa del Carmen, Puerto Aventuras is a peaceful alternative to the noise and crowds of this nearby larger city. It’s located on the oceanfront and is a beautiful, gated resort community, where it is safe to drive your car and walk around at night. Puerto Aventuras sits in the heart of the world-renowned Riviera Maya less than an hour from Cancun. It’s an ideal location to explore all that Mexico has to offer – you have the conveniences and attractions of the nearby larger resort areas, but the quiet and safety of a smaller town. Playa Aventuras is near enough to explore the ancient ruins of Tulum, or visit the eco-parks of Xel-Ha and Xcaret. Aside from sports fishing, which is very popular in Puerto Aventuras, a few of the other outdoor recreational opportunities available in the area include swimming, scuba diving, snorkeling, wind surfing, sailing, golf and biking. Puerto Aventuras is within walking distance of numerous restaurants, cafes and shops.
