With some terrific day trip options available in the surrounding area, renting a car makes good sense. Without one, it’d be much more difficult to enjoy all that Chetumal, 30 miles away, has to offer. Dr. Alfredo Barrera Marin Botanical Garden ought to be at the top of your list here. Museum of Maya Culture and Santuario del Manati are awesome attractions too. Don’t miss Mahahual either! Just 35 miles away, Maya Chan Beach, Mahahual Lighthouse and Dolphin Discovery are must-sees here.
