Everything you need to know about Tulum

Tulum all-inclusive resorts sit below clifftop Maya ruins on a low-rise stretch of the Riviera Maya, ringed by jungle cenotes and a bohemian beach. Tulum trades big-resort scale for a design-led, barefoot-luxury feel, beach clubs, yoga, and a strip of low-rise hotels shaded by palms. The ruins above the sea are the postcard, but the cenotes inland and the Sian Ka’an biosphere just south are the quiet highlights. It suits couples and travellers who want style and nature over nightlife and mega-resorts.

Essential info for Canadian travellers

  • Passport: A valid Canadian passport is all you need — no visa required for tourist stays up to 180 days.

  • FMM Tourist Card: The Mexican tourist card is bundled into almost all airfares. Complete the online form before flying to speed up immigration.

  • Travel insurance: Provincial health plans do not cover medical emergencies in Mexico. Comprehensive travel insurance is essential.

  • Power & plugs: Mexico uses 120V/60Hz with Type A/B plugs — the same as Canada. No adapter needed.

  • Time zone: Tulum runs on Eastern Standard Time (EST) year-round — the same as Toronto and Montreal, so no jet lag.

Secrets Tulum and the adults sections of the Dreams and Bahia Principe complexes are the main adults-only all-inclusives, with Hotel Xcaret nearby.

Do Canadians need a visa for Tulum?
