Where the sun was born



We just got back from paradise, better known as Sol Caribe.

About 2 hours south of Cancun, Sol Caribe is near Tulum in the middle of the Sian Ka'an Biosphere Reserve. Punta Allen, the town at the end of the reserve, has the nickname "where the sun was born", and it is totally appropriate. There's miles of beach, turquoise water, fishing, snorkeling, dolphins, turtles, crabs, pelicans, iguanas, great food, perfect margaritas ... and no connectivity other than sat phones. Michael has been running the place for 15 years, and along with Lee and a few other staff, they take really great care of you. If you're looking to get off the grid, this is definitely the place.

While the above clip does not do justice to the place, it gives a tiny peek into a wonderful slice of heaven on earth. A few photos are here.

Adios, mis gringos compañeros!
