Punta Venado Beach Club

Playa De Punta Venado and Coba Ruins

Everything about Playa de Punta Venado and the Coba Ruins is breathtakingly beautiful. The guided Coba & Reef Adventure takes you to another Mayan city, this time right in the middle of the Mexican jungle. The city of Coba is approximately 2,000 years old and contains a large network of stone causeways. At the Coba ruins, you’ll have the opportunity to climb the tallest Mayan temple, Nohoch Mul, which is 138-feet tall (42 meters). The view of the jungle from the top of the Coba ruins is stunning and also just happens to be the perfect place to catch your breath and snap some pictures.

After you’ve finished your Coba climb, the fun continues at Playa de Punta Venado, which is arguably the best beach in Cancun for swimming and snorkeling. The reef is filled with colorful coral, as well as tropical fish and other marine wildlife. Finally, finish the day at Cancun Adventures’ exclusive beach hideaway where you can relax and have lunch.
