Good morning! Today is a free day in Playa del Carmen, which means the possibilities are endless. Sit by the pool and soak in the sun or head to the shoreline and let the turquoise waters wash away the hustle of bustle of the world you left behind. If you’re looking for adventure, consider a yacht ride to Cozumel and explore the Meso-American Barrier Reef, the second-longest coral reef in the world.
