This local hotspot is definitely a must-try when you're in Tulum if only for the perfectly seasoned al pastor tacos. This place is always busy but well worth any wait. Prices are local (most are $10/$15 per) and you can order tacos, sopes, tostadas and empanadas.

Located less than an hour south of Playa del Carmen, Playa Xcacel is a stunning natural sanctuary and one of the best beaches in Riviera Maya. Its hidden location makes it less well known and much less crowded than most other beaches near Playa del Carmen and Tulum. With minimal amenities, Xcacel is a secret retreat where you’ll get to experience the untouched natural beauty and pristine turquoise waters of the Caribbean coastline. It’s located right off the main highway 307, and is about 40 minutes south of Playa del Carmen, or 20 minutes north of Tulum. More specifically, it’s located in between Chemuyil and Xel-Ha Adventure Park. Playa Xcacel is open on Tuesday–Sunday from 10:00 AM–4:00 PM. Note the beach is closed on Mondays and the closing times are strictly enforced. There is staff on-site that walks up and down the beach alerting visitors when it is time to leave. It’s best to get there early so you can enjoy a full day at the beach.
