This video will take you for a walk in Tulum Mexico and discuss the recent surge in crime in Tulum. There is a new airport and new Mayan Train opening in Tulum as tourism is set to explode in this part of Mexico. And with increase tourism come increase tourist dollars and increased crime. As a result, the recent surge in crime has left Tulum and Mexico with no other option but to call in more security forces.
As crime continues growing in the popular tourism area of Tulum, Quintana Roo officials have announced they’ll be adding more members of the Mexican Navy to patrol the area, effective immediately.
The announcement was made last week by the Secretariat of Public Security and Civil Protection of Tulum, with 30 members of the Mexican Navy added to assist with efforts to make residents and tourists feel safer. They were deployed in the airport and in tourist zones, according to the Cancun Sun.
The Quintana Roo Crime Stoplight Report, according to the Cancun Sun, noted that Tulum had six “red lights,” or serious crimes, out of the eleven the report tracks on a monthly basis in December, a sharp increase in crime from November. Tulum had red lights connected to violent crimes, such as rape and family violence and homicides, as well as drug dealing and burglaries.
With Tulum International Airport expected to open this March, officials may want to stamp out any further growth in crime so as not to deter potential travelers who are eager to enjoy greater connectivity to the growing tourism hotspot.
Tulum is a town on the Caribbean coastline of Mexico’s Yucatán Peninsula. It’s known for its beaches and well-preserved ruins of an ancient Mayan port city. The main building is a large stone structure called El Castillo (castle), perched on a rocky cliff above the white sand beach and turquoise sea. Near the ruins is the Parque Nacional Tulum, a coastal area with mangroves and cenotes (natural limestone sinkholes).
