The Riviera Maya is more than just amazing beaches. Is the cenotes, islands, food, people, culture, pueblos magicos, ocean, sunsets, bacalar, etc and also its ruins. Here are some of the best ruins you can find. Tulum Tulum Ruins is a small site. It has an excellent beach for swimming and cooling off, shopping and food. This makes an excellent half-day excursion and is easy to get to anywhere on the Mayan Riviera from Tulum to Playa del Carmen. You can use a tour company or go there yourself via colectivo.  http://www.tulumruins.net/  Coba Coba is deep in the jungle a 45 minutes drive off of Hwy 307 just before Tulum. There is a lot more to see here than Tulum including large temples/pyramids. Taking a collectivo here can be done but its not recommended. It’s better to rent a car and drive yourselves in or take a tour.  https://inah.gob.mx/zonas/515-zona-arqueologica-de-coba  Chichen Itza The Granddaddy of Mayan ruin sites in the Yucatan Peninsula and one o
