Unfortunately, the summer period is no longer a good time for the Riviera Maya. The water is no longer as blue as it was a few years ago, due to the abundant algae that has been arriving on this part of the coast for some years. The resorts are very beautiful, but it is better to stop in Cancun or at the most in Cozumel to have a Caribbean look. In spring, however, this part of the coast is still very beautiful. I returned to Playa del Carmen after 20 years and the difference in the color of the water was huge.
