Cancun
Gateway to the colour, culture and history of the Yucatan and an exciting modern holiday resort of luxurious hotels, buzzing clubs, designer malls and international restaurants, fringed with soft white sand beaches. Cancun satisfies culture vultures, sun-worshippers, shopaholics and party animals alike. Stay in the city or one of the quieter surrounding resorts and use it as a base for exploration and activity.
Cancun highlights
- Excursions and activities, such as scuba diving in the coral lagoons that surround Cozumel, swimming with sharks and dolphins, speedboat tours into the mangroves and day trips to Mayan sites across the peninsula, most inspiringly Chichen Itza.
- Tiny Isla Mujeres (the Island of Women), sleepy and beautiful, with a definite Mexican flavour.
- Golf, at a number of superlative courses within an hour's drive of the city.
- Great nights out - pre-dinner cocktails, fresh seafood prepared with skill and style at a host of excellent restaurants, a vibrant bar culture and nightclubs where you can dance until dawn.
