Families who want to avoid the club-thumping party scene of Cabo or Cancun could consider Tulum, located at the south end of Riviera Maya on the Caribbean Sea. The calm, quiet coastal town has the same consistently warm temps as other Mexican beach destinations, but its easygoing vibe sets it apart. Plus, Tulum provides easy access to kid-friendly excursions and activities, like seeing Mayan ruins, swimming with turtles in Akumal, and snorkeling at the marine playground of Xel-Ha -- and not to mention direct access to its own beautiful beaches. Check out our picks for the best kid-friendly hotels in Tulum.
