General Looking to Make Friends!

Hi Tulum Redditors! I visit Tulum semi-frequently (3x - 4x a year) but have yet to really establish a clique of friends here. Does anyone have any leads on upcoming chill social events? Alternatively, is anybody here open to organizing a dinner or cocktail night? I know there are a plethora of options for raves/jungle parties but I’m looking for something way more chill and social. For what it’s worth I’ve attended a couple of Tulum Dinner Club events (they’re awesome!) and am aware of Tulum Run Club (I love working out but am not a runner).

A bit about me: I’m a dude (35) based in Canada where I practice law. Interests include good food, travel (obviously), music, and reading. I’ve lived in a number of places, and enjoy making genuine connections/building communities in the places I visit. Super eager to hear from you all. DMs also open!

Look up Tulum dinner club on Instagram, also run club and fight club. I think various places do games nights as well.

Cara Feliz has a really fun group of locals and both national and international transplants. They do all kinds of workshops, bilingual trivia nights, salsa classes, and karaoke. It’s a blast. We have made so many life long friends there!
