went to the sian ka’an biosphere today to laze on the beach , decided to make base camp near cesiak
youll find all sorts of wildlife in the jungle
we cut thru the property , followed the ‘playa [beach]’ sign , and found a spot on the shore .
probably our favourite bit of beach this , quiet with a great beach . before we left we stacked a load of beers in ice and got our takeaway tacos for a great day in the sun . there where only a few familys right on front of cesiak , and a couple of couples a bit further along than ourselves . this beach is incredible !!
the usual squadrons of formation pelicans flew over
these are the eco huts on the beach @ cesiak
grab a beer
enjoy a moment !
as we left the beach we grabbed a drink @ cesiak and caught the views from the rooftop terrace – special ! you can see the whole strip of land that is the biosphere – lagoon one side , and sea on the other .

went to mezzanine party before full moon party . shame they had both clashing tonight and one didnt do saturday instead . what a waste ! so went along to full moon party @ papaya playa project . full moon was wed officially , but they big party is tonight . entrance was a huge 200 peso each what a rip to stand in a palapa on the beach . and to make it worse it was rubbish , i mean if you go expecting mezzanine , or some club like ibiza forgetaboutit !!
first it was blowing a gale . second it was lame cos 1/3 of people standing around bar , 1/3 of people sitting at tables on tiers looking cold , and remaining people huddled into quiet area where you cant hear music but you can shelter from wind . about 10 people danced to a dj on the sand . seriously we thought this was a club but it was far from it . its just the beach . there is no dancefloor , music you cant really hear unless on the sand , major let down . left after 15 mins and went back to mezzanine – this is where the party is at . cooler people and not freezing cold in a gale and good club / house music like being at defected in pacha ibiza or something . ok papaya had taken part of mezzanines crowd , but the cool ones where here while the sheep followed the flock down the road . jamie gittins dj’d a great set . lots of fire dancers , light shows , clowns , jugglers etc etc

Yknow there are odd parties and theres a listing calendar online too . Town is great too yknow, often better at night. Its not cancun or pdc tho, a bit more laid back than full on clubs every night. We love tulum
Where did you get your takeaway tacos?
you can get them in the Mexican town for low low price and so tasty , most things are a daft price on the beach and a lot of the time owned by americans not Mexicans . in the town however we liked el Rincon a big place on the corner in middle of town , heres their menu mmmmmm !! https://tharobster.wordpress.com/2013/04/10/tulum-mexico-day-11-xamach-dos-in-sian-kaan-el-rincon-tacos-biosphere-driving-video/
Thank you.
Interesting party 😉
