Last March we had a lovely guest, Iris, who stayed with us at Casa de los Viajeros. While here she took these beautiful pictures of birds in our garden. We had NO idea we had so many varieties of birds right in our own backyard. Here is a sample of some of the pictures she took. Enjoy!

Iris, of course, did venture off our property to the beach. There she also got some great pictures of some of our water birds.

We hope you enjoyed Iris’ photos as much as we did. And don’t miss a post on InPuertoMorelos.com. Sign up for our website today.

Got a minute? Spend it with us on the beach, and the dock in lovely Puerto Morelos!

While taking a short ride in the Colonia yesterday, I discovered a street that SHOULD be renamed, Calle Café. Why you ask? Well, there are no less than 4 cafés in a very short distance.

The road is actually named Calle 45 and it links Av Zetina Gasca and Timon, the two main roads in the Colonia.

First in line at the intersection of Timon and Calle 45, is El Manglar, which has lots of coffee choices plus full breakfasts, lunches and salads.

A short walk east you will find “Date el Gusto“. They have coffee, juices, and lots of healthy options.

Just down a couple of spots, you will find “Cecila Bakes“. She has coffee naturally, but her specialty is cakes. Really good-looking, tempting cakes. Also cinnamon rolls.

A little further down the road, almost to Zetina Gasca, you will find Revolucion Cafe. They have coffee and full breakfasts.

So there you have four places to try, and you have only sauntered down one street!

If you walk down other streets in the Colonia, you will find more cafe choices, including one of my favourites, Eneida Café.

The beach side of Puerto Morelos has even more choices, like the venerable Cafe De Amancia on the square and Lola y Moya, just south of the Chedraui grocery store.

You will not have to walk for a cup o’ java in Puerto Morelos!

One of PM’s less attractive sights has been improved greatly by a little paint and some skilled artists.

This is the underpass at the highway in Puerto Morelos, it now looks a little like an aquarium! Nice work!

Hopefully, the soothing images will enable drivers to relax a little when navigating this busy intersection.

A big opening in Puerto Morelos this week! (July 2022)

Welcome to El Nicho Bakery and Pastry Shop, brought to you by the good folks at El Nicho, one of PM’s favourite breakfast and Brunch spots.

Here you will find the freshest baked breads and pastries, made right here in Puerto Morelos. Vegan and gluten-free options are available too. You can also order specialty items, all made with that El Nicho attention to quality and taste.

This opening this week is only the first step in what will eventually become the New El Nicho. Astrid and Manny have a whole lot of grand plans for the rest of the space, which will be revealed in the fall. For now, both El Nicho locations are open every day, 7:30 am until 2:00 pm.

Congratulations to the entire El Nicho family! (Now…get to work!)

For those of you that still need tests, we have the latest rates for the most cost-effective way to get tested as well as where the labs are located. Plus we have information on the updated mask mandates in Puerto Morelos.

We have 2 very important pieces of news that are going to have an impact on your vacation.

First, the good news… We are in GREEN again. Green is the best colour we can be on the stoplight system and we have explained it once before in a previous blog post. Click here for details.

The government has issued a chart explaining the restrictions, but basically, almost everything is open to 100% including the things that are really important to you like bars, beaches, restaurants and public transportation.

For the government’s, details click here.

Second, the inconvenient news. The city is about to finish resurfacing the roads and sidewalks around the downtown core.

Beginning today, the city has announced that they will close the other half of Rojo Gomez and reverse the traffic flow on the completed side. The road behind the church (Avenida Niños Héroes south) is closed and soon the road in front of the lighthouse (Avenida Rafael E. Melgar) will be as well.

It will be great once they are finished, but in the meantime (and we have no idea how long it will be), we will have to deal with this inconvenience. If you are a tourist driving in town, we recommend sticking to Avenida Niños Héroes (going north of the square) and Avenida Rojo Gomez (going south of the square) and you will be fine.

Keep up to date with all the changes in town by subscribing to BEACH READS.

And if you would like to stay with us, contact us today. We have openings as of March 27th, when hopefully the road work will be done.
