Luxury Puerto Morelos Holidays

Pristine beaches and beautiful reefs

This peaceful fishing village is surrounded by pristine white-sand beaches and protected by the world’s second-largest coral reef system, making it a haven for snorkellers and divers. Its slow pace creates the perfect atmosphere to unwind while still enjoying convenient access to Riviera Maya’s vibrant attractions.

Despite its relaxed feel, Puerto Morelos has everything visitors need for a comfortable and memorable stay. The town features colourful local markets, beachfront seafood restaurants, and quaint cafés, while nearby eco-parks and Mayan ruins offer exciting day trips.

When to go

Mexico is a year-round beach destination, with temperatures rarely dipping below 20°C – even in winter. The summer months are at their hottest between May and September, which have average temperatures of 28°C. While short rain showers are possible, they are helpful in taking the edge off the heat.

Visa Information

UK citizens travelling to Mexico do not currently require a visa. You will need to fill out a tourist card, which you will be provided with on arrival.

Tipping

Mexico has a tipping etiquette similar to the USA. Service employees typically receive little or no base salary, so tips make up the bulk of their salary. Try to tip about 15% of the bill in restaurants and bars unless the bill includes propina (gratuity). Taxi drivers do not usually get tipped unless they have provided an extra service like loading or unloading your bags.

Introduction to languages

The official language of Mexico is Spanish. English is widely spoken too, so getting by is easy.
