Puerto Aventuras is located 45 miles (73 km) from the international Cancun Airport in the center of the Mayan Riviera.

Puerto Aventuras deepwater marina has capacity for over 250 boats and attracts everything from small pleasure craft right through to 150 plus ft. luxury yachts.  There are always fish to catch, however the best season is from March through May.  It is during this time that you will find the Puerto Aventuras marina full of super sleek sport fishing boats from all over the Eastern seaboard.  If you want to try your hand at game fishing, there are numerous charter boats available.   Although they catch and release the bill fish, the Mahi Mahi (Dorado), Wahoo, Tuna, and other fine eating fish are kept.  If you aren’t lucky enough to land your own meal, head down to the docks around 1:00 or 5:30 PM when the boats are coming in and you can likely purchase some fabulous fish to take home.  Wander along the marina walkways and feel free to check out the boats and chat with the crews as you explore this wonderful community.  Fishing boat crews can be real characters with many interesting stories to tell.

All of the villas and condos are within walking distance to find many services, restaurants or white sand beaches with wonderful reefs just off shore kayak & snorkel rentals, tennis courts, and an open air palapa roofed church.

You do not need to worry about walking alone at night; the area is very safe even for children walking around the marina.
