Too Hot to HandleWhat is a palapa?
- Palapa is a traditional Mexican shelter made out of palm tree leaves and branches.
You will find palapas on the beaches of Mexico and the Caribbean which provide shade and protection from the sun. Most of them are round, have central support and look like umbrellas – they just have a more tropical and boho vibe.
Other palapas are much larger in size and have structural support in different corners.
