Acerca de Muyil

Muyil is one of the archaeological zones located in Quintana Roo that are not yet as popular but have been of great historical importance. Its name refers to its geographical position. It is located 20 minutes from Tulum and is within the Sian Ka’an biosphere reserve. A curious fact is that these ruins have a certain architectural resemblance to those of Tikal in Guatemala. This area functioned as a trade route for the Maya along the coast and through a network of canals in this region.

The place is small but magical. It offers two parts: Muyil A and Muyil B, however only area A is open to the public, which has pyramids, religious structures and a characteristic long white path very similar to that of Cobá. The most impressive is the “Castillo” one of the tallest pyramids, however you cannot climb it. The area in general is very pleasant and shady for the little ones, I do not recommend taking a stroller due to the type of soil.

Hours are Tuesday through Sunday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. The cost of access is $45 pesos, however for nationals it is free on Sundays. Inside the place there are parking lots, restrooms and a rest area. Please note that there is no shop in or around the area. There is a lagoon where you can do the tour by boat, although I do not suggest that you take small children as it can last up to 3 hours and there are crocodiles in the area.

Likewise, you can take a walk of approximately 30 minutes and find a beautiful viewpoint where you can observe birds of the region. Remember to bring food, enough water, repellent, sunscreen and in case you go to the lagoon, bring a change of clothes. If you have been to Muyil, share your experience below.
