The great Mayan ruins of Coba. We thought “Coba” was a fitting name for our cool-colored hammock since these ruins sit on the Caribbean coast catching the cool ocean breeze. Coba was first settled in 50BC. WOAH! That’s a long time ago. Most unique to these ruins is the largest network of stone causeways of the known Mayan world. These are elevated stone roads that radiate out to different smaller sites, some as far as 100 kilometres. These roads are geometrically almost perfectly straight and it is unknown how they were able to achieve this. In the Mayan language the pathways are called “sacbeob.”
