Fast forward a couple weeks later when I in was Tulum and it felt like everyone either wanted my money or was high on something. I left after a few days. Puerto for sure!

I was in Tulum the first time in 1989 (old) and there was nothing there. We stayed on the beach in a cabana. The real one with no floor (just the beach). We hanged our hammocks in there and that was it. The shower was a bucket from the well and there was a "restaurant" where we had our meals. You could just walk up to the ruinas, no entry. Now it is something else. Not sure I will ever experience that again maybe a bit when I visited Myanmar but not close.

We booked a family trip to Mexico in July without knowing anything about those differences, except that PE and Oaxaca in general seemed less travelled. We are glad about our decision, the more info we gather. We hope to provide our kids with more of a backpacking experience than an all-inclusive vacation, and I think 8 days on the Oaxaca coast (split between PE and SA) will be perfect!

That was a pretty good breakdown. I went to Mérida in Jan, then randomly decided to check out Puerto for a week not knowing anything about it, and ended up staying for 4.5 months. Just got back home July 1. Stopped in Playa del Carmen on my way home for a week to visit a friend and check out the area. PDC is pretty gross...that whole side of the country has been ruined by hotels/gift shops catered to making Americans spend money. Puerto was amazing! I'll be going back in the fall. There are a few spots with good internet.y apartment in Tamarindos (between Zicatela and La Punta) was totally fine, and I never had a single issue with connection/speed.

Also, WiFi wthin PDC is top notch.

It actually rains a lot more in Puerto Escondido, than in Tulum. Twice as much. 81 Inches in Puerto Escondido, to 44 inches in Tulum. I don’t know where you get the desert from. It’s a very wet part of México. You probably were there during the dry season. In Puerto Escondido it rains in the summer, in Tulum in the Fall. “PUERTO ESCONDIDO CLIMATE SUMMARY Puerto Escondido is 67m above sea level. The climate is tropical in Puerto Escondido. In winter, there is much less rainfall than in summer. According to Köppen and Geiger, this climate is classified as Aw. The average annual temperature is 25.8 °C | 78.5 °F in Puerto Escondido. The annual rainfall is 2062 mm | 81.2 inch.” “Tulum: Precipitation amounts to 1,120 millimeters (44.1 inches) per year: it is therefore quite abundant. It ranges from 30 mm (1.2 in) in the driest month (March) to 180 mm (7.1 in) in the wettest (October). Here is the average precipitation. On average, there are around 2,525 sunshine hours per year.”

Very nice well done review of these two places, I have lived in Puerto Vallarta and Guadalajara for over twenty years. Tulum City not the beach has always been one of our favorite places, we know there are the expensive beach places, but the town of Tulum seemed more Europeans and fewer Americans. Sian Ka'an Biosphere Reserve is worth the visit with a large number of birds species and great scenery. It was expensive, we paid $140 per night for a tent, but it was a very nice tent. If you are interested in pre-Colombian societies Tulum is a good jumping off point. Oaxaca is a place we have been several times but never the beaches, my wife is a Mexican and we live at the beach but I never considered the Oaxacan beaches. We will give them a try soon. The one thing I will say about Mexico in general, every significant beach community has a broad variety of accommodations, from $10 to 2,000 per night. Most middle aged Americans tend to do $100-300 per night for a seven to fourteen day vacation versus $35-75 per night for people staying months. Violence in Mexico is over emphasized, there are dangerous places and the later at night and your level of alcohol ingestion increases your likelihood of problems, most of these problems are considerably less than a DUI in the USA. For the millions of tourists that travel to Mexico, most problems are from self destructive behavior not from aggression by locals, because it is very bad for business. Drugs, you will be offered drugs a lot if you are under 40. The best response is no thanks.

He's been there for about 20 years, he married a Mexican girl and has a factory in Puerto and one in Mexico City. My best friend has been visiting the Cancun, Bacalar, and Tulum area for about 6 months now. He just bought a condo in Tulum and will be moving there in about a week, in mid June 2024. So I'm set to go visit both, hopeully all in one trip. I've lived in Honolulu, Hawaii for about 12, going on 13 years now, so it will be nice to compare these Mexican locations to Hawaii. i've been to Ensenada and Cabo San Lucas before.

Tulum is an uppity tourist trap , too many people , with too much money to throw away . The locals know it and take advantage , 10 years ago it wasn't bad , then the Kardasians bought a place there .

I have also spent time in the Cabo region (so much more than just Cabo - rent a car and stay in La Paz - swimming with whale sharks is the best and cheapest on the planet imho). Also loved Acapulco (yeah, really - even surprised me after all the negative press), Mazatlan, Tijuana (yeah, really!!), Mexico City (AWESOME), Puerta Vallarta (especially Sayurita although that was over 10 years ago before it was really trendy like now) and Chetumal (down on the Belize border).

A few add ONS: Danger... Tulum is in the middle of cartel wars and the police are horribly corrupt straight up robbing people in the street. In PE the police were much less prevalent. I did get patted down one night walking in PE but they didn't take anything and let me go on my way. Sunsets... PE sunsets are unbeatable. Beaches....in the winter I agree with you that Tulum is incredible with blue water and beautiful sand. But in the summer, the sargasso is so horrible you can't even sit on the beach due to the size of the piles and stench. For the wifi: it's like $30 a month for a mifi on telcel. I worked on wifi 100% doing teleconferences with very very minimal interruptions. If the hard line wifi dropped I could always switch over to the Telcel. I wonder if you ran across my British friends Emily and Alex in PE!?

Unfortunately the more international tourists that discover Puerto Escondido, the higher the prices will go.
