Get ready to get your beach bum on! Tulum’s beaches are like a real-life screensaver. Stretch out, soak up the sun.
Heads Up!
The beaches in Tulum are all occupied by the many beach clubs. You have to pay for a day pass into one of those clubs which was about $50-100 USD. My first time going I was lucky enough to know a little Spanish, to feness our way in, by tipping someone who was friends with the bouncer. There are free beaches but they aren’t as clean and not very big. But hey that’s why the beaches are so beautiful!!
Say Cheese to Ven a la Luz📸
Strike a pose with Tulum’s giant statue lady at the entrance of Raw Love. Get creative with your poses for some unforgettable memories. The “Ven a la Luz” sculpture is a 33-foot (10 meter) tall artwork constructed by the very talented South African Artist Daniel Popper. The name translates directly as “Come to the Light” in Spanish.
