Travel Guide to Cancun, Mexico
|
Cancún is one of the most important tourist complexes in Mexico and the world. Its superb location, shaped like an island, its year-round mild climate, and its gorgeous, warm, sandy white beaches washed by the Caribbean sea are ideal for water sports.
The waters of the bay sheltered by Isla Mujeres are calm and perfect for surfing, sailing, underwater diving and boat trips; those facing the open surf have stronger currents but are also suitable for fishing and snorkeling.
Cancún has a first rate tourist infrastructure and services.
The most famous hotel chains in the world have combined luxury and comfort with hospitality and all of them offer access to tennis courts and relaxing spas.
Nightlife in Cancún’s hotel zone is extremely varied. You will find some of the largest discotheques in the world and restaurants with some of the world’s most famous chefs as well as fast-food outlets.
If you are looking for a calmer atmosphere, there are jazz or piano bars, as well as those with traditional mariachi music.
The numerous marinas facilitate this type of activities in both the bay and Laguna Nichupté where we recommend you try kayaking.
Cancún has fascinating Mayan remains, as well as a museum displaying pieces from this culture.
Its excellent overland and air links will whisk you to some of the most impressive places in the Mayan World in both Quintana Roo and neighboring Yucatán.
However, Cancún also has plazas and malls carrying everything from handicrafts from all over the country to an impressive array of imported goods.
Cancun is a thriving resort area that has grown into one of the world's most popular vacation destinations because of the incredible strands of white sand beaches that wrap along the coast like string of pearls, while just off the beaches and outside the city is the emerald green jungle, lush with tropical growth.
Natural wonders are plentiful, from intense turquoise waters, to brilliantly colored fish beneath the sea, deep blue sky and exotic lagoons. For those who like the glamour of the city.
Cancun offers incredible shopping, lively nightclubs, numerous restaurants and exciting water parks and sporting activities.
For those looking for a bit of rest and relaxation, it's at your doorstep. The hotel features a huge swimming pool, or head for the beach where you can make new friends as you join others who have come from all over the world to bask in this tropical paradise. |
