Our last trip we took an ADO bus and went to Playa for the day. It was a nice cheap get away and the beaches are awesome. You can do some shopping, have a nice lunch from the taco/fruit stands and hit up the beach bars...lots of fun.
THANKS Thanks for answering my question. How far down the beaches would I have to walk to get a nice piece of the beach...instead of the seaweeds...
the type of beach you are looking for is on the main strip. unfortunately you can not walk down the beach to get there. you can however take a bus down to the beach. but if you are going to do that just take a bus down to playa del carmen. the beaches down there are gorgeous you will not regret it.
Sounds Good How long will I be on the bus going to Playa Del Carmen? I'm kind of iffy about getting on the buses in Canun, have you ever? What experience?
the bus system in cancun is very well ran. and rediculously cheap. I actually feel safer on the bus than I do in the cabs. I have never taken the bus from temptations to playa del carmen, however I would estimate that it would be about 50 minutes to an hour.
First you have to take a city bus to ADO then the ADO bus to Playa is an hour or so. We left after 10 and were on the beach by noon. Completely different experience than Cancun beaches.
? can I cat the bus to the beach with American Money? Where is the best location? How long is the travel time? IM XXXCITED!!!!
There is a bus stop right outside the resort. You can use US$ on the bus..they will give you change in Pesos. If you are going to Playa it will take you less than half an hour to get to ADO station then a little over an hour to get to Playa. When the bus stops outside the resort just ask ADO and they will let you know if they go there and then tell you when to get off. Wish I even had a trip in the planning!!
