Holidays in Cancun
Holidays in Cancun are living in the best hotels of the coast, swimming in the Caribbean Sea, visiting bars, restaurants, shops and parks with fountains, tasting Mexican cuisine.
The main activities in Cancun
- Excursion: for those wishing to organize a trip to Chichen Itza, where they can see the Temple of Warriors, the pyramid of Kukulkan and the Observatory; to the ruins of the Mayan coastal city - Tulum; to the ecological park Shel-Ha (here you can not only see rare plants and animals, but also swim in the lagoon, and explore underground caves, plunging to the bottom with scuba diving and a mask). In addition, you should include a visit to the Museum of Underwater Sculptures in your excursion program (for this you need a scuba gear and a mask).
- Active: for active tourists, the resort provides the opportunity to play tennis or golf, go surfing, yachting, diving, ride an underwater motorcycle, go fishing, have fun at the Coco Bongo nightclub or the Wet'n Wild water park.
- Beach: going to the "Dolphin Beach", you can not only swim in the turquoise water and soak up the white beach, but also go surfing, fly a kite up to the observation deck. It is highly discouraged to swim far from the coast - dangerous underwater currents are to blame. And on the Karakol beach you can go snorkeling, go water skiing and attend the lessons of professional instructors in water sports.
Prices for tours to Cancun
The ideal time to travel to Cancun is November-April. This period is the high season, which means that you need to be prepared for high prices (this is especially true for the New Year and Christmas holidays, as well as the February carnival). If your plans include the purchase of more or less affordable tours, it makes sense to tackle this issue during the rainy season, which lasts from May to November. For example, arriving in Cancun in September-November, you can save up to 40%.
On a note!
If you are going to spend time on the beach, you should definitely use sunscreen with a high SPF index (this also applies to tourists going on day walks in the city).
Since travel agency services in Cancun are quite expensive, it is advisable to rent a car or hire a car for the whole day to get to any attraction. You can save even more by renting a motorcycle or scooter, but it is not recommended to travel out of town on them (even light rain makes concrete roads slippery, which can make the trip dangerous).
Memorable gifts from Cancun can be capes-ponchos, sombreros, products made of wood, leather, ceramics, onyx, silver, branded items (you will be delighted with attractive prices, because local sellers are tax-exempt), a ritual Aztec knife, masks, tequila, calendar Mayan.
