TULUM OUTFITS

Though Tulum might be remembered for late nights and dancing on the beach until sunrise, it’s adapted a more laid-back vibe over the last decade, taking on outfits with a vibrant ease that come through in loose silhouettes, pops of print, and beach-to-drinks looks that make your stay as chic as possible.

Pro Tip

😎

Tulum outfits are casual but very chic. Go for easy, bohemian styles like caftans, bikinis, and plenty of flat sandals for day or night.

The Perfect Day

MORNING

Start the morning off with a stop at Matcha Mama for a healthy breakfast and its namesake drink.

DAY

Now that you’re fueled up, time to go shopping! Check out the wares made by local artisans at shops like La Troupe, Arte Sano, and Wanderlust.

EVENING

After you relax on the beach in the afternoon, make your way to dinner at Verdant, a zero-waste restaurant that is as eco-conscious as it is delicious.

Family Trip

MORNING

Look for hotels that have private villas or suites like La Zebra. Many even have private pools attached so you can let the kids splash around with ease.

The younger travelers will love the specialty waffles at Campanella Cremerie, a local favorite on the main road in town. Parents will want to indulge in the gelato and coffee drinks.

Don’t miss a trip to the ruins in Tulum, where the whole family can learn about the ancient Mayan culture that originated in the region.

Splurge on your surroundings by staying at Be Tulum, an ultra-chic, adults-only boutique resort with a gorgeous private beach.
