José María Morelos is one of the 10 municipalities of the state of Quintana Roo and one of the 7 municipalities with which the state of Quintana Roo was born in 1974. The municipality does not have relevant tourist centers, although it has potential for exploitation in the Chichancanab lagoon and localities related to the Caste War such as Sacalaca, in the town of Sabán, vestiges of colonial churches and convents in Sabán, Sacalaca and other localities.
In March, the Spring Festival is celebrated in the municipal capital. Traditional dances include: the dance of the pig's head, in which people dance around a cooked pig's head decorated with confetti, which a man usually holds on his head while dancing. Another dance is La Cinta, in which people dance and weave figures with multi-colored ribbons that come off the tip of a pole about 10 meters long. Also common are the Yucatecan-influenced jaranas that are danced at the Vaquerías, popular festivals in honor of the town's patron saint.
