The best therapy is once a year to go somewhere you’ve never been before. My top pick is definitely Cancun. Why? There’s a little something for everyone in Cancun, they say. But what makes Cancun the ultimate Mexican Caribbean destination?
Considered the most dynamic city in Mexico, with rich history and irresistible nature, warm seas, and glittery beaches, “Isla Cancun” is definitely the definition of island life. There is so much to do in Cancun, you can have activities every day, full days, from live shows to sailing cruises.
You can’t miss the mile-beaches, the most popular public beach is Playa Delfines, where yes, you get plenty of chances to meet dolphins around, however for a kids-friendly type of beach, that is also quiet and less crowded, you should get to Playa Chac Mool.
World’s famous adventure parks with canals you can swim through, jungle hikes, beach coves, and cultural shows are all included in Xcaret, or if you’re more into ATVs and caves then Xplor is the right park for you. Xenses is the one for optical illusions and Xplor Fuego for the nighttime torchlight adventures.
One of the best Mayan ruins, an epic collection of temples and monuments, Chichen Itza can mean a group visit with a sunrise tour, buffet lunch, a trip to Valladolid and so much more or even a private tour if that’s what you’re up to. Check more activities that include Chichen Itza here.
Cancun is all about swimming, scuba diving, and snorkeling and why not take advantage of the vast choices of cenotes and their healing properties. Find out more.
Don’t miss Punta Cancun nightlife party area with plenty of clubs and tourist bars.
If you are ready for a new adventure and you need a break from all the sun exposure, you must explore The Rio Secreto Nature Reserve – an underground cave system considered an unforgettable experience. Make it easier and book a group tour.
There are a lot of options on how to spend your days around, make sure you won’t miss the magical islands of Isla Las Mujeres and Isla Contoy.
It’s recommended to avoid traveling in September – October because of the hurricane season, however from November until August you have plenty of time to plan your trip.
