This picture embodies warm summer Mexican nights, with the sun setting over the hills and water lapping at the shore-line in rays of pink.

Even late into the evening Mexico’s water is warm and inviting, the perfect spot for a sunset swim.

Playa del Carmen is one of Mexico’s biggest holiday hotspots, and the beaches here are loaded with watersports, lined with restaurants and jam-packed with activities.

Look a little deeper though, and there are beautiful treasures waiting beneath the surface.

Playacar is a luxury resort in Playa del Carmen and is home to some of the most beautiful beaches in Mexico. The sand here is a classic powder white, with a backdrop of lined palm trees.

You’ll also find cosy spots for two, like in this Instagram shot, where you can have a refreshing cocktail as you look out towards the water.
