Everything about Cancun can be expressed in just a few words: "Tropical Mexican Paradise". This island is visited by tourist from around the world that are looking to spend their vacations between white beaches, crystalline water, sun, Caribbean sea and entertainment (aquatic, terrain, nightlife and more).
There are direct airport transfers to your hotel (at Cancun, Playa del Carmen, Tulum, Puerto Morelos or Puerto Aventuras), so you don’t have to worry about it.
If you’re staying at Isla Mujeres (or you just want to visit it), you can get there by taking the Ferry which leaves every hour from Puerto Juarez, Cancun. Or if you are planning a trip to Riviera Maya, you can also take a shuttle from your hotel at Cancun.
When the night falls, after your activities like walking on the beach, shopping or resting at your resort, you can enjoy Cancun nightlife, one of a kind.
Cancun is an ideal tourist destination for vacations that adapts perfectly to your plans, because it can be as well a place of party and tequila, a quiet and relaxing place to spend time with your family or an exotic adventure and excursion spot to enjoy with friends.
At the Riviera Maya, you will find beautiful beaches facing out onto the Caribbean Sea. They are the ideal spots to relax. Or also you can do all kinds of water sports like snorkeling, windsurfing and even kitesurfing (a new exciting and extreme sport).
If you love scuba diving, you can take a boat that will take you to the Great Mayan Reef, the second largest coral reef in the world, place where you can dive at depths of more than 10 meters (33 feet) among multicolored coral and fish.
Playa Paamul and Playa Paraiso, near Playa del Carmen, and their two beautiful beaches with calm waters and gorgeous ecological parks: Xcaret and Xel-Ha, are high recommended spots to visit. Nearby are numerous sinkholes (cenotes) where you can do cave diving to explore the amazing depths of the Yucatan Peninsula underground river systems.
The largest town on the Riviera Maya with approximately 20,000 inhabitants, Playa del Carmen still conserves the atmosphere of a small fishing village. Until a few years ago, it was best known as the departure point for the ferry to Cozumel Island. People soon discovered the long stretches of beautiful solitary beaches, the calm turquoise sea protected from strong currents by Cozumel, and an array of diverse lifestyles. It did not take long for Playa, as it usually called, to become one of the most popular destinations south of Cancun where you will find a lot of things to do. Many visitors have remained and settled down here creating an international cosmopolitan town where one is just as likely to encounter Mexicans as well as Europeans, North Americans and South Americans. The conglomeration of nationalities has contributed both to the cooking styles and the general appearance of Playa.
Tulum's greatest attraction is its location. It stands on a bluff facing the rising sun commanding views of the Caribbean that are nothing less than spectacular. In Maya, Tulum means "wall". It is a walled city and one of the very few ancient, American forts built. The plaza at the center of the city was probably once used for rituals or ceremonies.
The Castillo is the largest building bluff commanding a view of miles in both directories. The mentioned bluff has a view for miles in both directions. The Temple of the Descending God is another interesting structure. On the facade, there is a figure sculpted head down, and the wall inside show traces of the original pigments applied by the Maya. The earliest date found in Tulum came from a stela in the inner sanctum from 564 A.D.
Cancun and the Riviera Maya average more than 300 days of sunshine with temperatures ranging from 80-85 Fahrenheit degrees from September to April and 85-90 from May throughout August.
