Things to do in Felipe Carrillo Puerto

  1. Santuario de la Cruz Parlante

    The Santuario de la Cruz Parlante is five blocks west of the gas station on Hwy 307. There's no sign at the site, but you can't miss the stone wall with a gate. Some of the town's residents do not like strangers in the sanctuary, and may try to take your camera if they see you using it here. The building, a thatch roof set over walls, is next to a small cenote and set on a rock slope. A sign on the door says no one may enter wearing a hat or shoes.

  2. Loncheria 25 Horas

    Dirt cheap without being dirty, this casual eatery sports plastic chairs and the fumes of passing trucks (it's across from the gas station), but had a giant selection of eggs, sandwiches, tacos and smoothies.

  3. Parrilla Galerías

    This has the look of a more upscale spot, but serves beer for M$15 and tacos at M$40 for three. The house specialty is a parrilla with lots of accompaniments (M$185 for three people).
