Reasons to go on a Yoga Retreat in Tulum
There are so many reasons to choose Tulum for a yoga retreat (besides the fact that Tulum really caters to the yoga and wellness community).
The most obvious is its turquoise water and miles of white sand beaches. The beaches go on forever and they back right up to Tulum’s lush jungle. And, since the jungle meets the beach, most of the Tulum Beach hotels are immersed in the jungle. Each has its own private feel that is super unique.
Tulum is relatively easy to get to. Fly into Cancun and either rent a car, take a bus or book a private transfer (my preferred method) to drive you 90 minutes to Tulum.
If you are a history buff or culture-seeking traveler, Tulum is rich in Mayan history and culture. You can visit ruins, pyramids, and other archeological sites, and learn about and participate in ancient wellness practices.
Tulum is home to Si’an Kaan, a designated biosphere reserve that is home to thousands of flora and fauna. It is a UNESCO site and it is the largest protected area in the Caribbean. You can take an eco-tour of the reserve and marvel at its beauty!
Tulum has cultivated a wellness community. There is no shortage of yoga studios, healthy cafes, retreats, nature, and meditation centers.
Cenotes, lagoons, and jungle oh my! But seriously… so much nature and so much adventure.
While very popular among travelers and digital nomads, it’s still not as touristy as Cancun. Tulum still maintains a more laid-back and less developed vibe.
It’s an eco-friendly destination. Even though it has seen rapid growth, it is home to many world-class sustainable hotels that want to preserve its beauty and environmental health.
When to go on a Yoga Retreat in Tulum
Personally, I think the best time is November and April. I always try and visit places at the very beginning or tail end of their high season.
That being said, anytime between November to April is a great time to go. It is high season though. January – March is particularly busy.
May, July, and August are less crowded and you can find better deals. June, September, and October are the rainiest months and often many places are closed.

The bus! It’s between $7 and $20 dollars to get to the Cancun airport from Tulum. I use Busbud to find and book tickets.
Yes, Mexican cuisine is one of the most gluten-free friendly cuisines. You can also say “No puedo comer trigo, pan” (I can’t eat wheat or bread) to be safe.
Yes, but… Tulum is beautiful but has seen A LOT of development over the last ten years. Too much development too fast is never good, especially for locals.

Just be conscious of this when you visit and check what your hotel/resort is doing to preserve the land and the culture.
