Progreso Vacation Rentals, Condos, Villas and Beach Rentals

Progreso is a working port town on the Yucatan Peninsula, located in a very quiet and remote area. It has a wide, white sand beach with pretty, light green waters – a good beach for families. Although an important port town, Progreso has retained the atmosphere and culture of a small Mexican beachside village - this is the “real” Mexico; not a place built up especially for tourists. Progreso is not difficult to find your way around in, and maps of the town and coastline are available at the tourist office on Progreso’s main street. Aside from the beach activities, other things to do in or near Progreso include fishing, boating, snorkeling, windsurfing and birdwatching. Progreso has beachside dining, shopping for Mexican handicrafts, restaurants and a small market with fresh fruits and vegetables. There is much to explore in the area, and Progreso makes an excellent choice for a home base. Approximately twenty minutes away is the city of Merida with all its’ history, culture, shopping, fascinating architecture, cathedrals and plazas. Other nearby attractions include the Mayan ruins at Chichen Itza and Uxmal (about a two-hour drive away,) several swimmable cenotes (sinkholes,) pink flamingo sanctuaries and many other interesting colonial towns and villages.

Surrounding areas: Chicxulub (12.2 mi / 20 km), Merida (22.1 mi / 36 km), Telchac Puerto (26.1 mi / 42 km)
