What things cost in Playa del Carmen
Prices in Playa del Carmen spread far wider than any single "from" figure suggests, and 100% of the catalogue can be cancelled free of charge. So the useful question is not what the cheapest ticket costs, but which band buys which kind of day.
That median sits 17% above Mexico's. Small towns with one famous sight usually price higher: fewer operators, less competition.
