  Colectivos

  These are the white vans (10-14 passengers) that run north and south along Highway 307. They transport locals and tourists anywhere between Tulum and Playa Del Carmen. Simply stand along Highway 307 and wave when you see the Colectivo coming. They will stop if they have room and you just tell the driver where you want to go. A Colectivo will usually come by every 10-15 minutes. Akumal to Playa is approximately $3USD. Colectivos run daily from 7:00am until 9:00pm.
