Coba Setting is Lovely

by peggydaly - last update: Jan 23, 2006

Jungle Setting

Shady Ruins
I was in Coba several weeks after Hurricane Wilma and the lake in front of Coba was flooded. They had an interesting "alternative route" into the park. I found the fact that there is still jungle around the ruins refreshing and less stark than Chichen Itza (shade good :).

Ball Courts are exceptions

There are 2 excellent examples here, fully restored.
Cheap bike rental a must!

The bike is worth it!

By all means - rent a bike! You can get one a little ways inside the entry gate. I think it was around $4.00 for all day. It not only gets you to some of the outer ruins more quickly, it stirs up a nice breeze in a place where it's VERY welcome. That jungle gets HOT and sticky.

Pros:"Unique ruins in beautiful jungle setting"
Cons:"hot and lots of mosquitos"
In A Nutshell:"The little town and the ruins are definitely worth the visit."
