More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You set off along the Progreso malecón with the Gulf breeze pushing against your jacket and the segway humming underfoot. Salt spray dares you to look farther than the shore; the long concrete pier juts into flat blue water and a line of palms keeps time with the waves. The ride alternates between town streets, wide promenades and quiet stretches of sand where footprints are still fresh.

History
Progreso expanded in the late 19th century as a purpose-built deep-water port for Yucatán trade; the unusually long pier was built to reach ships offshore.
Conservation
The Yucatán’s coastal zones rely on healthy mangroves and responsible beach use — stay on designated paths, avoid disturbing wildlife, and dispose of trash properly.
