You step off the coach into a strip of brilliant turquoise where the lagoon meets the Caribbean, the water daring you to cool down after a warm morning drive. At Xel-Há the current guides snorkelers through shallow reefs and mangrove channels; the park’s river pushes you along with lazy ease. Later, cliffs and stone steps at Tulum bring a change of pace: the wind shapes the salt-worn face of an ancient city that watched seaborne trade centuries ago.
