Telchac Puerto is a quiet and unspoiled fishing village where a handful of North American snowbirds have left the pressures of home behind to adapt to the laid back and relaxed rhythm of the Gulf of Mexico. You will feel at home here in this tranquil getaway where foreigners have adapted to Mexico, rather than the other way around, seen elsewhere in the bigger resorts of the Yucatan. Telchac is a place where you will find basic conveniences and services, but where the traditional Yucatecan values of courtesy, honesty and hospitality are still very much in evidence. We promise you that you will not be bothered by a single person hawking souvenirs.

Yet the busier port town of Progreso, with its shops, supermarkets and American hospital, is just a 25 minute drive. The white colonial city of Merida, with its nightly outdoor folkloric dance presentations, broad range of restaurants and shopping, including Costco, Sam’s Club and Walmart, is 50 minutes from Telchac on well maintained roads.
