Cancún's most underrated ruin: a compact coastal Maya site just north of Puerto Juárez, crowned by El Castillo — the tallest pyramid on this stretch of coast. INAH renovated and reopened it in January 2025 with new facilities. Cheap, nearly empty, 15 minutes from downtown. Perfect paired with the Isla Mujeres ferry next door.
