Just returned from Tulum after 4 days spent in Dreams resort. Saw a huge round 7" diameter calabash fruit (Crescentia cujete)at the entrance of the 'Mayan ruins' soon at the entrance . After showing our tour guide Anna about the local name she said 'Jicare' and is used for crafts. Among the palms saw many Alonidia merrilli with bunches flowering and early red fruiting now. The fruit nuts are used in Southeast Asia as a substitute for beetel nut (Areca). Saw 3 fruit bunch of Mexican guava at the ruins.
Thanks for your wonderful picture of fruits in the market. I tried in vain finding any fruit farms nor clubs to visit as our trip was mainly for attending a wedding and social event.

Yes, Tulum is a touristy spot not too many fruit stands. You need to go to Valladolid or surrounding pueblitos like Chemax. I’ve covered alot of the peninsula fruit hunting ignore the tourist traps bunch of junk there. There are hundreds of palms in the Yucatán here are pix of some of the palms in my property.

Kuka
Chit
Chakax
Royal
Bottle
And dozens more
