Yesterday, one of my favourite customers stopped by my stall at the Maroubra Beach Market to pick up some essentials for his upcoming trip to Cancún, Mexico. He’s gearing up for a holiday adventure in Latin America, and his excitement took me back to memories of my own family trip to that vibrant part of the world. He bought a set of matching boardies for himself and his little one—a Tolu Australia signature—and it made me so happy to be part of his upcoming travels.
If you’re also planning a trip to Cancún or the Riviera Maya, here’s my curated list of must-visit spots that guarantee unforgettable experiences for the whole family:
1. Two Eyes Cenote (Cenote Dos Ojos) 🏊♂️💦
