Costa Maya is a small tourist region in the state of Quintana Roo, Mexico, the only state bounded by the Caribbean Sea to its east. It borders Belize, & is mainly undeveloped, but it has been growing quickly because of the recently added large pier, added to accommodate cruise ships. Costa Maya's port has a new & modern tourist shopping mall, a central plaza with saltwater pools, & 'swim-up' style bars. There are several jewelery stores & many small shops selling souvenir items, but they are mainly only open only to cruise ship passengers. Costa Maya is also very well known for its close proximity to many of the lesser known Mayan ruins in the Yucatan, including Chacchoben & Kohunlich.
