Xcaret to invest millions in new attractions


Located near Playa del Carmen (about an hour’s drive south of Cancun), Xcaret — Mexico’s largest theme park — will benefit from an investment of $26 million in the months ahead. The base park focuses on archaeology and eco-tourism while an adjoined facility specializes in adventure. The firm also manages facilities at Xel-Ha, a vast natural aquarium. Last year, 2.29 million visitors made use of its facilities, an increase of 13 percent over the year before.
