Description


Xcaret

Xcaret (Mayan pronunciation: [iʃ.ka'ɾet]; Spanish pronunciation: "ekskareh") is a Maya civilization archaeological site located on the Caribbean coastline of the Yucatán Peninsula, in the state of Quintana Roo in Mexico. The site was occupied by the pre-Columbian Maya and functioned as a port for navigation and an important Maya trading center. Some of the site's original structures are contained within a modern-day tourism development, the privately owned Xcaret Eco Park.
