A purpose-built cruise port on Mexico's Yucatan coast, Costa Maya's main draw is the Mayan ruins at Chacchoben and Kohunlich, a short drive inland, alongside beach clubs right at the pier.

Costa Maya

Tourist region in Quintana Roo, Mexico

Costa Maya is a small tourist region in the municipality of Othón P. Blanco in the state of Quintana Roo, Mexico, the only state bounded by the Caribbean Sea to its east. This municipality is close to Chetumal on the border with Belize. The area was generally undeveloped but has been growing rapidly since construction of a large pier to accommodate cruise ships. Costa Maya is also the name of a subdivision near the village of Mahahual. The beach extends from Xcalak in the south to the southern border of Sian Ka'an in the north, a distance of approximately 100 kilometers (62 mi).
