Vol. 11 Issue 12 | Christmas in the Mexican Caribbean

santa on caribbean beach

Some Mexican children will get a visit from St. Nick this year, but many have another special Christmas spirit who brings gifts and joy. On Christmas Eve, kids can expect a visit from "el Ni-o Dios". The Holy Child brings gifts to the good girls and boys. Then on January 6, the three wisemen come to visit for "Reyes Magos". The Magi leave more gifts for the children, sometimes in their shoes!

Many Mexican families attend a midnight mass on Christmas Eve. The Birth of Christ is very much the central theme to the Mexican celebration, and this is a grand change from the commercialized American Christmas. The Christmas trees have to travel a good way, and that drives up the price. Usually, full sized trees are only found in the homes of the wealthy, but many others find a way to honor the evergreen by adding ornaments to a small branch or shrub.

To decorate for a Mexican Christmas, be sure to add some of the beautiful red poinsettias or "La Flor De Noche Buena". They have been a Christmas tradition throughout much of the world since an American ambassador introduced it to South Carolina in the 1820′s. A well-dressed Mexican Christmas home would also have to have a Pinata (paper-mache figure filled with candy)! As part of the fun, the children gather around and smack it with sticks until they are showered by the candy explosion!

The Mexican Christmas festival is an impressive sight, with elaborate decorations and celebrations for nearly a month! The holiday is overwhelming in its magnitude, but amazingly, in all this revelry the people rarely lose sight of the true meaning of Christmas! Let us know if you are planning a holiday trip and we will be happy to meet with you to discuss some of the best Caribbean beachfront listings that we have available to suit all needs and budgets. With financing now available the time has never been better to treat yourself to a Caribbean future.
