20 MOST INSTAGRAMABLE PLACES IN MEXICO
Mexico is one of the most Instagramable and colorful places in the world. If you are looking to upgrade your Instagram feed, this is the place where you should go. You’ll have a blast. Just make sure you have enough space on your drive for all the content you will have after a visit to Mexico.
📍Restaurante MEXTREME in Zona Hotelera, Boulevard Kukulcan Km 9.5
Very tasty fruits, a great breakfast, and an amazing atmosphere during the dinner service. The sombrero hats are a must if you are dinning in this place, to fully delve into the Mexican vibe.
📍Chichen Itza – one of the main archaeological sites on the Yucatan Peninsula, in Mexico. It is a sacred city and a Mayan pilgrimage center, founded by the Itza, the so-called water sorcerers, in the 5th century AD. The name Chichén means “mouth of the well” and Itzá refers to those who founded it, the Itzáes “water witches”, around the year 435.
📍 VEN A LA LUZ AT AHAU TULUM
This is the most popular and Instagramable place in Tulum. The giant sculpture has become the landmark of Tulum.
📍 The Mayan Ruins in Tulum
The Maya people had many talents, but their most impressive talent was building. It is said that they had around 60 cities and they built them all. They built so many things such as palaces, pyramids, ceremonial structures, and temple observatories. This was impressive as they didn’t have metal tools.
📍 Tulum Beach
Tulum is divided into two parts, the Pueblo and the Beach, but trust me, the entire Tulum is Instagramable, starting with food, passing through the Mayan ruins, and finishing at the beach side.
📍 Mayan Selva
Go and explore the Mayan history inside their habitat, mostly in the Selva (Jungle). You will find native Mayan people welcoming you with specific rituals and body paint.
📍 Holbox Island
This island is a small piece of jewelry, very Instagramable starting with colorful bars, white sand beaches, and this point where you know how far from home are you. I was exactly 8 193 km away from home. Not bad for a retreat.
📍 La Bodeguita del Medio, Playa del Carmen
This is a true Cuban restaurant, but it is the best place to be in Playa del Carmen. Great Mojito, the best I’ve ever had in my life and life Cuban music with people dancing and having fun. Just go there if you are in Playa del Carmen. You can get the best Instagram Reels with live music and people dancing Salsa.
📍 Holbox Island graffiti
These two graffiti stones that are on the beach on Holbox Island are just impressive, even on a rainy day.
📍 Holbox Island landmark sign
Don’t worry about the weather when you are in Holbox. The island is Instagram-worthy even on a rainy, cloudy day. And you’ll have the best time of your life on this paradisiac island.
📍 Holbox Island
Windy but still worth it to check up on this beautiful boutique hotel on Holbox Island
📍 Playa del Carmen bench
All around Mexico, you will find these benches with native Mexican statues sitting and resting to have a blast with. If you want a showstopper on your Instagram feed with Playa del Carmen, this is your spot.
📍 AHAU TULUM
Ven a la Luz has a lot more to offer than the statue of the wood woman. Simply continue the path and you’ll find other spots, where there is no line as people do not rush into. But they are totally Instagram-worthy.
📍 Cenotes all over the Yucatan Peninsula
If you want to have a blast and tranquility while having cenotes shooting, I suggest you go early in the morning, before crowds start arriving.
📍 Bacalar Lagoon
It’s no wonder that Bacalar is named the Mexican Maldives when you arrive there and see the beautiful color of the lake. Bacalar is located in the southern part of Quintana Roo state, in southeast Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula. You will find different names for this beautiful paradise, like Bacalar Lagoon, Laguna Bacalar, the Mexican Maldives, The Lagoon of Seven Colors.

📍 Valladolid City Center
If you’re on your way to visiting Chichen Itza, then you should make a stop at Valladolid. It is a small city of 48 000 residents with a charming town center, colorful homes, and authentic Mexican life. Valladolid is an excellent city if you wish to delve into the true Mexican life.
📍 Rosanegra Beach Club – Tulum
The place is dreamy, and the spectacle is worth every penny.
📍 Tropical – Restaurante Mexicano in Playa del Carmen
This is the place to be if you want to eat in a Frida Kahlo be-spoke restaurant with excellent Mexican food. Very big dishes and the fish is incredible.
