This pocket-sized Caribbean village on Mexico's Costa Maya in Quintana Roo, Mahahual has grown from a fishing settlement into a tourist centre with a café and restaurant scene dense for its size. Soft sand beaches, grass-thatched palapas, and access to the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef line the coast, while a nearby cruise port brings regular ship traffic — meaning the village alternates between quiet and busy depending on what's in port.
