The History of Inter Playa

Inter Playa del Carmen was started in 1999. Local business people and the city government worked together to create the team.

The team first played in the Third Division from 1999 to 2003. In 2003, they won the Torneo Clausura. This big win helped them move up to the Second Division. Since then, the team has stayed in this professional league.

On December 18, 2021, Inter Playa reached a major milestone. They played in the grand final of the Liga Premier Apertura 2021 tournament for the first time ever. However, they lost to Alacranes de Durango.

On March 13, 2023, Inter Playa had another exciting victory. They beat Club Calor to win the Copa Conecta Championship. This game was played away from home in Monclova. Their fan club, known as "Marea Azul" (Blue Tide), traveled all the way from Playa del Carmen to cheer them on. The fans brought their drums and celebrated the well-deserved win.

Inter Playa del Carmen also has a big rivalry with Pioneros de Cancún. These two teams are from cities that are close to each other. Both cities also compete in the tourism business. Because of this, their games are known as the Quintanarroense Classic.
