Generally closing time is around 2 am. Nightclubs and discos stay open until 4 am and sometimes later. While the locals and tourists here are fun loving and enjoy partying, don’t expect Ibiza for example. On nights when a full moon glows in the sky, all-night raves are arranged on the beaches. A particularly popular beach for this is Coco Beach.
Unlike Cancun, here one makes the most of Playa’s small dimensions as you can easily walk from one bar to the next without having to climb into a taxi or catch a bus every time. Walking home to your hotel is also easy when you decide to call it a night.
The Blue Parrot and Capitan Tutix are two of the most popular after hours clubs. Walking along the “Quinta” strip gives you a chance to check out all the places dotted along it, as well as the bars and clubs tucked away on the side streets. There are new places sprouting up by the week, as Playa’s popularity continues to grow. For jazz lovers, Apasionado is the place to be to enjoy some great live music.
DIVING: Playa has great corral reefs bordering the coastline, which are simply teeming with exquisite species of marine life. Part of the biggest barrier reef in the world, second only to Australia’s Great Barrier Reef, it attracts many diving enthusiasts. In Playa itself you will find several diving stores carrying any equipment you may need on all kinds of different dives.
FISHING: With the rich marine fauna and flora, Playa has an incredibly broad range of fish swimming in its waters. It is renowned for a great fishing location and frequented by many fishing enthusiasts.
SAILING: Another active yet relaxing option is chartering a catamaran or small sailboat and making a day cruise of it… Spectacular weather ensure perfect sailing conditions to enjoy the Caribbean sea with your family and friends.
PARASAILING: a rather more daring option, gazing down on your holiday destination from the heavens offers an original, thrilling and very different viewpoint.
WIND SURFING:we have a contact in the windsurfing school which offers discounted lessons or rentals.
YOGA: Playa del Carmen has many studio's / teachers all within walking distance of the school.
GOLFING: What is a spectacular beach town, seaside resort without decent golfing facilities? The kinds of crowds that Playa attracts certainly calls for a first rate golf course, and it has one! South of Playa’s main center, in a place called Playacar, you will find an 18-hole course designed by Robert van Hagge.
SPORTS CENTER: Referred to in Playa as the “Unidad Deportiva”, this center has sporting facilities for those who enjoy tennis and basketball.
HEALTH CLUB: there are several well equipped gyms where you can join yoga, toning or aerobics classes and do some weight training.
