Overview
With children, Mexico scores with things they understand at once: turquoise water, turtles, jungle and pyramids. November to April is the dry, pleasantly warm travel season on the Yucatán Peninsula. The journey takes around twelve to fourteen hours, usually with a change, so a fixed base is worthwhile instead of a round trip. Akumal on the Riviera Maya is known for its calm water, in which sea turtles glide over seagrass, and the bay suits children who can already snorkel.
Bacalar in the south offers a freshwater lagoon with a gentle entry, where the day can be divided into hours on the water and in the shade. Holbox is a car-free island where children walk barefoot from the accommodation to the beach. Good to know: tap water is not suitable, and bottled water applies for brushing teeth and drinking. Outside the large towns, cash in pesos helps, and tipping is part of the culture.
Visa-free for up to 180 days. Sun protection, hats and light clothing for the children are indispensable.
