Halachic note
Playa del Carmen follows the local custom of lighting candles 18 minutes before sunset. The Shabbat-end time shown uses tzeit hakochavim (8.5°). A 72-minute alternative is also shown for those who follow that opinion.
Playa del Carmen hosts a vibrant, transient Jewish community primarily serving tourists and expatriates. Shabbat life revolves around several active Chabad centers and Sephardic community hubs offering services, kosher dining, and a welcoming atmosphere for all.
