Rooftop bars in the Riviera Maya

The Riviera Maya stretches along Mexico's Caribbean coast, and rooftop bars are scattered throughout this region's main towns. You'll find them in Cancún, Playa del Carmen, Tulum, and Puerto Morelos—each one sits high above the street, letting you look out over the water and surrounding landscape while you drink. Some are in hotels, others stand alone. Some focus on cocktails made with care, others offer cold beer and simple drinks. The rooftops themselves vary: some have lounge chairs where you can settle in for the evening, others feel more like standing bars where people mingle. What they share is the view. From up there, you see the Caribbean Sea stretching toward the horizon, or you look down at the town below as the sun sets and the lights come on.
