If you’re looking for a singular experience that will immerse you in Mexican culture through tradition, music, history and nature, Xcaret should not be missed. It’s a majestic archaeological park with endless recreation and entertainment for the entire family. Each night, more than 300 performers adorned in colorful costumes take visitors on a musical journey through the history of Mexico from pre-Hispanic times to the present day. Experience the re-creation of a pre-Hispanic ball game or a festive Charra celebration.
At Jaguar Island, an abundance of color and grace await you at the Butterfly Pavilion. The adventure continues in the sea, where you can snorkel, swim with dolphins and swim through underground rivers. Plus deliciously innovative food representing the regional flavors of Mexico will keep you energized throughout your stay.

XCARET is a family friendly park with wildlife, beaches, natural pools, cenotes, underwater activities, cultural sites, and an entertaining live show. You can also play with dolphins, swim or with sharks! We had SO much fun there last year for my birthday. You can purchase tickets directly through their website, and they offer all sorts of packages and discounts. Our package included photos, transportation to and from the resort, lunch, and the show at the end of the night with dinner.

It truly was a celebration of the nation of Mexico with all states represented! Go see it!
We did not have time to visit everything. There is an aviary with more than 1,500 birds, sea turtles from babies to full size adults Much more impressive than the turtle sanctuary on Isla Mujeres, an opportunity to experience scuba diving without anything but a helmet, no gear, Carnaval, Childrens World, and crafts exhibits throughout the park and much more. There is plenty of food, too. A perfect day!
