Resorts

To the east of Progreso, near Chicxulub, are the summer resorts traditionally favoured by the people of Mérida. Also very popular are the beaches west of Progreso, with the little ports of Yucalpetén and Chelem. In addition to bungalow hotels there are also furnished houses available at very reasonable rents between September and June. It must be admitted, however, that this coast does not compare with those on the Caribbean side of Yucatán.
