What’s there to do in Playa for Valentine’s Day?

Besides beautiful beaches, romantic restaurants and ruins, clubs, 5th Avenue, horseback riding on the beach, wine tastings, and more, there’s perfect weather and walks with the sun on your back.

Mexicans regard friendship very highly, considering it a precious gift of life, and celebrate both love and friendship on February 14, El Día de San Valentín (Valentine’s Day) also called El Día del Amor y la Amistad- the day of love and friendship.

Just as in other parts of the world, Valentine’s Day in Playa del Carmen has signs of love everywhere. Cards and balloons offer “Te Amo” (I love you), “Para mi amor”(for my love), or “Felicidades” (congratulations). Delicious chocolates and flowers, especially red roses, are also sold in many stores. Try Ah Cacao Real Chocolate  who has 2 locations in Playa del Carmen (5th Avenue and Constituyentes, or  5ta Ave. between Calle 4 and 6).
