Cancun Vacations

By Jennifer Bailey

Welcome to Cancun: fourteen miles of white talc sand, remarkable biodiversity of over 475 bird species, sapphire blue lagoon and a sunny climate. Located in the state of Quintana Roo at the Southern-most tip of the peninsula, Cancun is the tourist Mecca of Mexico. The government of Mexico provides a safe environment for tourism to flourish and is similar to Miami or Myrtle Beach but with more international flare. One of the most visited tourist spots in Mexico, Cancun boasts over twenty-five thousand hotel rooms, suiting all budgets and packages.

The Caribbean Sea offers a spectacular view and works as a soothing balm for tired spirits. It is a home to various marine species and tropical fish. Besides having exciting activities like parasailing, kayaking, snorkeling, Cancun also boasts of some of the best nightlife of world. For a quieter scene, head for the lobby bars, where you will be entertained by Flamenco and jazz.

Situated in the heart of Mayan world, Cancun is within traveling distance of several Maya ruins. Chichen Itze, one of the most famous sites in Mayan history, is very near Cancun. Downtown Cancun can offer you authentic Mexican food. The attractive boutiques here will have everything, from hats, cigars to exotic perfumes and souvenirs. People can also have a glimpse of the real lives of native Mexicans who live in the district. The locals inhabit the 22 kilometers sandy strip running between the lagoon and seaside hotels.

Until 1974 Cancun was not very developed and remained unpopular with the tourists. Now it is as cosmopolitan as the French Riviera and is counted among the world's top resorts. The climate here remains sunny for around two hundred days, so it offers plenty of time to head here. While packing, include light cotton clothes, as it is not very cold here. For evenings and formal wear, light jackets will do just fine.
