The law prohibits consuming alcoholic beverages in public places. Still, there is significant tolerance along Quinta Avenida and at the beaches. Beyond those limits, the situation is very different.

Can You Drink Beer on the Street in Playa del Carmen? While the rule of consuming beverages in public places is technically in place throughout Playa del Carmen, there's a notable exception along Quinta Avenida.


Here, you'll find a more relaxed atmosphere, where it's common to see people enjoying their drinks without any issues.


Additionally, there is usually some tolerance regarding drinking on the beach in Playa del Carmen, allowing visitors to relax and enjoy their time by the water.
