White sand beaches in México

in travel •  7 years ago 

I've always been more interested in travelling to places off the beaten path, either way up north or way down south, which are usually less warm and sunny. Call me crazy, but I'm just more interested in the cultures in those places for some reason.

But a few months ago I visited the Caribbean coastline of México and realized what people mean when they say 'tropical paradise'. This place was postcard perfect in the most beautifully cliche way. We were at a town called Tulum.

I'd never experienced such white sand and such warm, clear water before.

The palm trees lining the beach were just idyllic.

Small boats that could take you out snorkelling were anchored in the calm waters.

Though it was very touristy, it was yet again another beautiful part of the world to experience that I'm very grateful for.


I'm a 25 year old photographer from Australia, who has been exploring North America for the past three years. I'm in love with the outdoors and love sharing my passion with others through my photos.

😍😍😍looks stunning. Im from aust also and love travelling. I travel with my 3yr old who also loves to travel. So great to see at 25 youre exploring the world. Something i never had the guts to do cuz there was always something holding me back. Good on u. Happy travels.

That's awesome you're travelling with your toddler! It must be a challenge at times but so worth it I can imagine. So much better to spend money on experiences for your family, rather than things that sit around at home!

My thoughts exactly! He has learnt so much from his experiences of travelling. Yes it needs lots of patience and understanding but the rewards are priceless. I only hope i will be able to continue our travels. It can be quite expensive!

These photos are stunning. I definitely want to travel around in North America one day as well!

Thank you! You really should. Once you get there, it's relatively easy to get around. We bought a cheap car for most of the time and were able to see so many places.

Really nice shot. I have a post coming in the following days about another white beach.

Thanks for sharing ;)

Awesome, I'm looking forward to seeing it! Have followed you

Beautiful pictures!

Thank you so much!

Postcard worthy!

Thank you! It really felt like it there

What part did you visit? We were in Playa Del Carmen in the fall. Looks similar.

Tulum and Akumal! Definitely less touristy than Playa or Cancun.

What a beautiful place! That one isonmy bucket list!

It really is special!

Nice! Very familiar to me haha :D Is that Tulum? Have you been to any of the little know spots on the Riviera like Xcacel or Xpuha? These are really stuning ;)
