More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You kick up red-dust on a rattling buggy, palms flicking past the windshield as Caribbean light spills across limestone outcrops and scrub jungle. Minutes later you stand at a cavern cenote, cool water daring you to jump, then the day opens into the broad sweep of Macao Beach—wind-pruned surf and a coastline that pushes you toward the horizon.
