No more daylight savings time for Mexico!
Effective October 31, 2022 daylight savings time was eliminated for all but a few communities along the US border. Quintana Roo and Sonora have not observed daylight time for years, so there is no change for us.

What if you need a Doctor while visiting Playa del Carmen.
If you need to be seen by a Doctor, we recommend Hospiten Playacar. Very close to the condo on the highway just south of Sams Club. English speaking personnel and very high standards. There is good information here regarding insurance, 911 etc. Check with your health insurance beforehand to see what coverage you may have while traveling in Mexico

Please be a responsible tourist and protect the reefs
You should plan to use only eco sunscreen and use things such as hats, sunscreen clothing etc to eliminate the need to use so much of it.
