If you have been down on the beach in the afternoon, then it is definitely worth stopping at Mateos on your way back to town to watch the sunset from the rooftop bar. 2 x 1 cocktails each day and live music on a Sunday. Also a great option for dinner on a Saturday night with live music from the Bombonera 8-10pm

Punta Laguna is a large expanse of forest set around a beautiful fresh water lagoon, ideal for swimming. There are kayaks, a zip line, cenote that you repel into to swim so you can spend a whole afternoon there. The highlight however, it the large group of wild spider monkeys that we have have been studying for over 15 years
