We are going March 7th-15th, just curious what times you guys were down there and what it was like for rain/wind/sunshine?
We are 26ish, so we want the party when we want it, and we want the quiet when we want it. So it sounds like Playa is much better for us than Cancun. Although a night trip to Cancun will probably be in order.
Our resort is located just outside of the town, I think like a 5 minute walk along the beach on the northern part. I understand that 5th ave. is mostly busy for restaurants towards the southern end?
The dolphins is something I feel I want to check out, just because it is a rare thing for a Sask boy to get to do

But the deep sea fishing really has me interested, it is supposed to be great fishing around there for Marlins, anyone try it out?
Thanks so far for the great responses guys, didn't expect so many so fast.
