About
Γρήγορα στοιχεία: Gusting sea breezes sweep across sheer cliffs into brilliant turquoise water, where visitors can spot nesting frigatebirds and enjoy panoramic ocean views. Hidden sculptures punctuate the coastal trail, mixing mythic figures and sleek abstract forms so each bend becomes an unexpected photo stop and quiet place to linger.
Κύρια σημεία: At sunrise the cliff-top drops away into razor limestone where roughly two dozen sunbathing iguanas dot the rocks, and the ocean spray smells sharply of salt and warm coral. Around the highest lookout a tiny stone shrine to the moon goddess Ixchel still holds shells and braided bracelets left by visitors, and an old lighthouse bell clanks in gusts of wind like a slow, salty metronome.
Insider tips
- Wear sturdy shoes for uneven cliff paths and sunscreen for exposed trails.
- Arrive at opening to avoid tour groups and to see iguanas and seabirds when they are most active.
- Best photo spots are the lighthouse platform, the cliff viewpoint by the sculptures, and the shoreline looking back toward Cancun.
- Bring a refillable water bottle and small Mexican pesos, food and shade are limited inside the park.
