5th Avenue at night, is it actually safe?
Very, just touristy. Stick north of Calle 12 for the better restaurants and skip south of the ferry pier after 11. You'll be totally fine.
Good to know. Day trip to Tulum ruins?
Go early, really early. A 6am private driver pickup gets you at the ruins gate at 7 when they open, and you'll have it almost to yourselves. By 10 the parking lot is jammed and the magic is gone.
Then what?
Breakfast at Casa Malca pool club, swim a bit, then head back. Or push down to Akumal for the turtles if you want a longer day, both are great calls.
