With Tulum´s eternal summertime (okay, it cools off a bit in December-January), outdoor dining is prevalent wherever you look. Many small restaurants in Tulum pueblo offer outdoor dining in open palapas such as Il Giardino, and other restaurants located on the main avenue have seating both indoors and outside. Charlie´s has outdoor dining in the garden behind the main restaurant.

Most dining on Tulum beach is in open palapas or directly outdoors, on the beach or in the jungle amongst the palm trees.
