Amazing beach club which is located about 20 minutes by car from Playa Del Carmen and with a private beach and great restaurant. The path to the beach club is quite an adventure but the nature there is preserved and the water crystal blue.

La Playa Xpu Ha is my personal recommendation for an amazing and authentic beach club with an absolutely amazing beach and blue water in front of you. This beach club is located in between Playa and Tulum so it can be done on a day trip or on the way to Tulum for example. The restaurant is quality and prices are very affordable.

This is a bit further out, right in the Zona Hotelera in Tulum but it is one of my favorite spot in the whole region. This place is a gem, a must visit. The beach in front is absolutely beautiful and with white sand. The restaurant offers many options and great cocktails and the price is extremely reasonable compared to other places in Tulum. There is a minimum spend per person for the sunbeds with shade of 1,000 MXN per person.

Sightseeing

Cenote Cristalino is another one of the cenotes which often hit the top 10 list of the best cenotes in Quintana Roo and Mexico. It is right next to cenote Azul so you could do both in the same day. Usually you won't spend a whole day at a cenote in any case so this could be a great option for you to discover multiple places in the same day. It is fairly large and there are plenty of areas where you can swim freely.
