Is the Beach Open in Mexico?
Most of the public beaches in Mexico are open, but capacity may be limited. Depending on case numbers of COVID, beach access could be altered. Depending on the number of cases, beach hours may be adjusted to limit the number of people on the beach at one time. However, it is very easy to follow social distancing at the beach, because Mexico has miles of breathtaking and beautiful beaches where visitors can spread out and enjoy the fresh air and sunshine. In addition to beaches, most restaurants are open. They have rearranged seating, so there is plenty of space between guests to dine. Some bars are not open, or only allowed to be open if they serve food as well. Many businesses have limited operating hours as well. Most of them also provide takeout and delivery options, too. All staff members will be wearing facemasks as well.

Recently, new regulations were issued that require travelers to provide a negative COVID test at check in. For travelers heading to the US, they must show a negative antigen COVID test. Canadian travelers must show a negative PCR test. Some flights into Canada may be postponed or cancelled so make sure to check directly with airlines to get the latest information. First, throughout the airport social distancing is required and everyone must wear facemasks. Also, travelers will have to have their temperature checked before they board their flight.
