Go to Tulum, the Mayan Riviera. What an amazing place!

 

[Jeepster]

Xel Ha park on the mainland is a good beach/snorkel spot. If I had a couple of days I would definitely do a cenote dive.

We did Tulum this trip as well:

Shortly after my mainland trip to mexico the screen saver for my firestick kicked in and I glanced up. I saw a picture that looked very familiar then realized it was a near duplicate of my photo of the Temple of the Wind. I happen to like mine better. (Hint. Its the top one)

I didn’t realize until recently that it seems the main diety at Tulum is the Decending or “diving god. “

Authentic “Mexican” cooking class. I have not done it yet but hope to one visit. This is one I had heard of. Maybe others.

Cozumel Chef | Josefina's Mexican Cooking Classes

If this is the class I am thinking of, then it's well worth your time on a day off. My wife went to this class a few years ago, and was completely entranced. First they take you to real Mexican markets and show you what to buy for the class, then they spend the rest of the morning cooking it all up. I was hanging around the hotel until I got the call from her, then I scurried over and had one of the best Mexican meals of my life. They almost had to carry me out in a wheelbarrow. We are still reaping the dividends from that class. If you are at all into cooking, then by all means try this course.

Hit up the tequila distillery.....yummy!

We may have to do that in September that's my preferred drink when I drink thanks

But why, oh why, do they put corn in their flan? That's just wrong.

Flan was not part of the class I took at Kondesa, but I'd eat pretty any sort of flan that has flan in it.

Are you opposed to helado or paletas de elote, or does it just strike you as wrong in flan?

It's the one you describe.

Both, actually. I cannot stand corn, and I really don't know why. But flan is supposed to be smooth, not lumpy, and when those lumps are corn, I cannot eat it.

+1 on going to Tulum. Doing a couple of cenotes dives and then visiting the ruins is a great day.
