Costa Maya, Mexico

Well, first of all the port itself is lame. No need to spend time there - the shops are all commercial and not local artisans. But, if you take a shore excursion then go to Chacchoben Mayan ruins. Yes, the bus ride is close to an hour each way but it is worth it. The ruins are beautifully restored and the site itself is lovely. Our guides, Daniel and Luis, were very knowledgeable and nice. The bus was much more comfortable than the one in Belize. The tour took the whole afternoon and we got back on the boat at the last minute.
