Deeply rooted in our history, the Day of the Dead is a well-known Mexican affair. Filled with color, music, and tradition, it is one of the most important festivities within our culture and a demonstration of the captivating, lively, and creative spirit that defines the land of cenotes and historical wonders all around.
Inviting and secretive, the Day of the Dead is tinged with mystery. When in tune with the Mayan legacy upon which our cozy little town was settled, the archaeological zones out there, the thousands of historical things to do in Tulum, and the captivating landscapes of the Caribbean Sea, the festival takes a turn, becoming a moment of reflection, inspiration, and remembrance.
Fall in love with the Day of the Dead.
Every year on November 2, Mexico dresses up for the Day of the Dead, an ancient practice that has survived the test of time. In it, we remember our loved ones who have crossed to the other side. With altars covered in flowers and confetti, exquisite dishes that we know were the favorites of our loved ones, music, color, and all the love in our hearts, we prepare to welcome their souls back for just one night and to let them know that we have not forgotten – they will always be with us.
In addition to the classic offerings for locals, Day of the Dead is also an invitation for those who visit us at the beginning of November and wonder about the many things to do in Tulum: the answer is to fall in love with one of our most beautiful traditions. With catrina parades, contemporary art exhibitions, folklore dances, snack stands and even concerts by local orchestras and groups, the entire country joins the fiesta.
Pre-Hispanic cultures had a deep connection with the cycle of life, nature and the cosmos. Its cosmogony can be seen and felt in places like the archaeological zone of Tulum, a citadel that evokes the splendor of the Mayan civilization in one of its moments of historical peak, located just a few minutes from our boutique hotel in Tulum.
Visiting within the framework of the Day of the Dead is one of the best ways to connect with the roots of this colorful and transcendental tradition, and immerse yourself in the history of a country that has myths and legends to keep on giving.
Even today, in some local communities, ancient practices are still a thing and the Day of the Dead is celebrated as their ancestors did back then, with small and private ceremonies that are a privilege and an opportunity to attend.
