IN & ABOUT PUERTO MORELOS – October-November 2010

FALL is here and we are back after a month’s trip to visit family and friends in the US and Canada.

Now is the time to select the destination for your fall or winter Get-Away Vacation in Puerto Morelos where you will find a little taste of paradise while experiencing an exotic vacation. Located at the entrance to the Riviera Maya and mid-way between the hustle and bustle of Cancun and Playa del Carmen, Puerto Morelos is the perfect place to get back to yourself. Puerto Morelos is one of the last Mexican villages that maintains the charm of a real “pueblito” or little town by embracing the natural beauty that is abundant in this area.
________________________________________________________

This year, the village has changed its Halloween celebrations to the 29th of October because November 1st and 2nd, the celebration for the Day of the Dead, a very popular tradition in Mexico, provides a 4-day long weekend for the locals.

The United Nations International Climate Change Conference will held in Cancun November 29th to December 10th and it is expected to attract thousands of visitors from around the world. If you plan to be in the Cancun area during this week, book your accommodations early. If you wish further information, Contact Us

While visiting, plan to enjoy diving and snorkeling at the National Coral Reefs Marina Park located a short swim from the shores of Puerto Morelos, or perhaps you might prefer to simply relax on our beautiful wide white sand beaches with a good book and a cool drink letting the clear blue-green ocean waters lull you into tranquility. The options are yours to make – or you might want to do both.

NEW since July . . . The Puerto Morelos’ SPANISH LANGUAGE SCHOOL is an added option for visitors who want to take advantage of this special experience through an immersion method of leaning the Spanish language with our native teachers. Ask us for more details about this opportunity during your stay. Contact Us.

Cooking School – Again this season, the LITTLE MEXICAN COOKING SCHOOL is ready to teach you the traditions and culture of the Mexican foods, as well as the methods in which to make them. To register for classes, go to their site at: www.thelittlemexicancookingschool.com

TRAVEL TOURING
Are you the adventurous type? You might want to don your explorer gear and visit the nearby Mayan ruins of Tulum, Chicken Itza or Ek Balam.

COOL THINGS TO DO IN PUERTO MORELOS

*GO SNORKELING AT THE REEF.
Puerto Morelos’ most spectacular attraction is its reef filled with hundreds of varieties of fish, sea life and corals. This underwater playground is located directly in front of the village. Because this is a Marine Reserve, snorkeling must be done with a guide. At the reef you can see rays, lobster, eels, nurse sharks, turtles and more. For scuba divers there are many different dive sites featuring: a military boat with large cut outs for divers to explore, a wooden wreck, a garden area with coral formations plus pathways and chimneys you can swim up to.
*TAKE A LONG WALK ALONG THE BEACH.
Miles of white sand beach and turquoise water stretch along the Caribbean coast of Puerto Morelos. Dotted with natural sea grass, exotic sea shells and scurrying Sandpipers, a stroll along the coast line is a great way to wash away stress.
