Guidebook for Playa del Carmen
Food Scene
Only 4 blocks from the studio. Small and unassuming, this little restaurant specializes in local seafood - in fact, if you want to, you can select your own fish at the fish market next door - totally fresh! The prices are very reasonable and as you might imagine, the place is always packed. Service is no frills and quick and the food is just plain delicious.

Parks & Nature
Best beach for snorkeling. Sea turtles, fish and coral are easy to spot. You can take a Colectivo van. The driver would drop you at the highway and you can either walk 500 meters from there or take a taxi to the beach.
