Walking
Start at the famous Quinta Avenida (Fifth Avenue) in downtown Playa del Carmen, which is a pedestrian-only street. From any point on Quinta Avenida, head south until you reach Calle 12.

Rent a bicycle from one of the many rental shops along Quinta Avenida. After renting, cycle south along the beach path adjacent to the shore. Continue cycling until you reach the end of the beach where Playa del Carmen Wild Beach is located. The ride is relatively flat and should take around 10-15 minutes depending on your pace.
