In the northwestern corner of the Yucatán
Peninsula, where the turquoise-blue waters of the Caribbean Sea mix
with the warm, crystalline waters on the Gulf of Mexico, lies a
haven of relaxation and hospitality called El Cuyo.
This charming fishing town lies within a protected
area of outstanding natural beauty rich in flora and fauna and is
considered by locals and visitors alike to be a paradise for nature
lovers.
El Cuyo is a unique and authentically Yucatecan
experience, a hidden gem populated by welcoming fishing families and
surrounded by abundant coconut palms, sea breezes and majestic Ceiba
trees, whose cultural significance dates back to the days of the
Mayan civilization.
This beautiful coastal community boasts unspoilt
beaches of fine golden sand where a strolling visitor will find a
countless array of sea-shells swept ashore by the constant breaking
of waves on this picture-perfect stretch of coastline.
El Cuyo is located just two hours west of the
tourist hot-spot of Cancun, and only three hours east of the
colonial splendor of state capital
Mérida.
