Playa del Carmen is a city on the coast of the Caribbean Sea in the north east of the state of Quintana Roo, Mexico, located at 20.62° North, 87.07° West. The city is the seat of the Solidaridad municipality. In 2003 the city had a population of about 49,000 people, though it is rapidly growing in population.

Tourism to this little city began with the passenger ferry service to Cozumel, an island across the Cozumel Channel and world-famous scuba diving destination. While passing through, many people realized that it was a nice place to relax away from the crowds of Cancún but with the same quality beaches and turquoise waters.

While not as incredible as Cozumel, Playa del Carmen`s coast offers some good scuba diving opportunities, as well as cenote diving for the more adventurous.

Today Playa del Carmen, or just `Playa` as locals like to call the city, is the center of the Riviera Maya concept, which covers from Cancún to Tulum and the Sian Ka`an biosphere reserve. All activity centers on the Quinta Avenida, or Fifth Avenue, located just one block inland from the beach, and lined with boutique hotels, shops, and small restaurants.
