My favorite breakfast place in Merida. They have fresh squeezed orange juice and very good coffee. A nice twist on Mexican classics like Chilaquiles. Friendly service.

Sightseeing

La Ermita de San Isabel is, without a doubt, a charming corner of Mérida. In the Barrio (neighborhood) of San Sebastián in the Centro Histórico, near the old city gate marking the Camino Real to Campeche, with its striking arch at the corner of 64 and 69, is Ermita de Santa Isabel, located at the corner of 66 and 79, named for the mother of San Juan Bautista. In the center of the park is the plaza with a kiosk beside the church, surrounded by a lovely garden with seating and play areas, watched over by beautiful Colonial-style homes which will surely help you to visualize what this beautiful area looked like in days gone by.

The Cathedral of San Ildefonso receives its name from when it was assigned to the head of the Archbishop of Toledo. It is considered the oldest church in the Americas built on the mainland, second only to the one built on the island of Santo Domingo, Hernán Cortés’ first landing point. Its construction, made from the stones of the pyramids of the ancient Maya city of T’hó, began in 1561 and the first stage was completed 37 years later, in 1598.

The Grand Plaza is a true cultural experience. Just sitting in the park and people watching is great. If you can make it there for the weekend instead of a week day, do it. Street performers (especially on Sunday) and live music, awesome street food. They do close off the side streets so you can amble around as you like in the Plaza, or to any of the bars and restaurants surrounding.

Celestun is a sleepy fishing town on the western side of the Yucatan peninsula. The real draw to Celestun beach is the eco-tour boat trip through the Reserva de la Biosfera Ría Celestun. This is where you can find thousands of wild flamingos that tend to flock here in the winter months and into the spring.

Almost an extension of Progreso, the Chicxulub beach lies 8 km to the east of its more developed neighbor. The beaches around Chicxulub are skinnier here with high tide often bringing the ocean up close to the many beachfront properties that line the shore. Unlike Progreso, the shorter pier here is open to the public.

East from Progreso, it’s about a half-hour drive from Progreso to reach the small beach Telchac, which has some facilities and a central pier you can walk out on. There are some other interesting natural attractions nearby. The road from Progreso towards Telchac is along a lagoon, rather than the beach. As you approach Telhac, there are a few spots along the way where you can find pink lagoons and even flamingos
