Yes, there are several varieties of papaya, and they can be categorized into two main types: Hawaiian and Mexican. Some common varieties include:

1. **Hawaiian Papayas:**
   - **Solo or Strawberry Papaya:** Small, pear-shaped, and sweet. The skin turns yellow when ripe.
   - **Sunset Papaya:** Larger than Solo papayas with orange flesh.

2. **Mexican Papayas:**
   - **Maradol:** Large, oval-shaped fruit with red or orange flesh. Known for its sweetness.
   - **Tainung:** A hybrid variety with elongated fruit and red-orange flesh.

3. **Other Varieties:**
   - **Caribbean Red Papaya:** Similar to Maradol but smaller and with red-orange flesh.
   - **Kapoho:** A dwarf variety suitable for smaller spaces, producing small sweet fruits.
