Parrots, tucans, monkeys, flamingos, turtles, manatee, and dolphins, are just a few of the animals waiting to be seen in the Riviera Maya. The tropical jungle also holds a treasury of incredible plants, many of medicinal value for the Maya.

I smile o'er the wrinkled blue Lo! the sea is fair, Smooth as the flow of a maiden's hair; And the welkin's light shines through Into mid-sea caverns of beryl hue, And the little waves laugh and the mermaids sing, And the sea is a beautiful, sinuous thing! Part of "The Sea Spirit" poem by Lucy Maud Montgomery
