About
Cancun
Located at the tip of the Yucatan Peninsula in eastern Mexico, alongside
clear, warm, Caribbean waters, Cancun
is more than just a hotspot for spring break beachside partying and
clubbing in the acclaimed Hotel Zone. The Cancun
area used to be inhabited by Mayan civilizations and this is evident
in the ruins at Chichen
Itza a short drive away. A small, sparsely populated fishing village
up until 30 years ago, Cancun
has grown into one of Mexico's most popular destinations, attracting
two million visitors per year. Go!
Cancun Tourism
Beaches:
Playa Linda, Playa Langosta (Lobster Beach) and Playa Tortugas (Beach
of Turtles) are the most popular beaches in Cancun offering calm waters,
perfect for children and leisure. Playa Chac-Mool, Playa Marlin and
Playa
Ballenas (Beach of Whales) have bigger, rougher waves but in turn
are a more secluded and peaceful sandfront.
Isla
Mujeres (Island of Women): Tiny island 8 miles off the coast of Cancun.
Fishing village which retains small town Mexican Caribbean charm and
authenticity.
Ruinas
El Rey (Ruins of the King): Mayan ruins near Hotel Zone. These plazas,
buildings and platforms were inhabited from 10th - 16th century. Skeleton
of what is believed to be a Mayan King was uncovered here, hence the
site's name.
El
Centro: More of the old school, original feel of Mexico, this is the
older Cancun downtown area centered along Avenida
Tulum. Great place for buying Mexican crafts and souvenirs and bargaining
with the shopkeepers.
Chichen
Itza: Ancient city which flourished between 800 and 1200 AD, was the
political, religious and social center of the Yucatan.
Ruins of temples, platforms and even a ball court can be visited here.
