The magical wonders of Careyes
Gian Franco Brignone, the founder of Costa Careyes, dreamt of a man and a woman united by the cosmos while bathed in the light of the setting sun. In 2006, the manifestations of his dream were created. Majestically perched on a cliff overlooking Playa Teopa, La Copa del Sol, which represents the woman, rises 35 feet from its base and is over 88 feet in diameter. Equally an acoustic and visual marvel, it catches and cups the sun.

La Copa del Sol
01. The Pyramideon
The Pyramideon, representing the man, is tucked inside a cave a mile inland from La Copa del Sol. Aligned in such a way that the sun appears to set into La Copa while illuminating the Pyramideon. These structures unite, just as in the dream of Gian Franco, on the equinoxes of March and September. The visit of the Pyramideon brings you to the next level of the magic of Careyes, understanding how it is profoundly grounded in ancient Mexican heritage.
Created from the rocks caved out of the Piramideon, el Centro del Universo ¨Center of the Universe" is Deemed sacred, they now spiral into El Centro del Universo at the top of Cabeza del Indio. El Centro del Universo is accessible by a 15 min guided hike known as “Camino de la Vida”. Access to both sites is available under request only and is subject to availability. Bookings must be made 24 hrs in advance with the concierge.
