Cancun

Travel to Cancun

Cancun is located in Quintana Roo, where Mayan culture shines on every corner.  Surrounded by the breathtaking Caribbean Sea, soft coral sands, and the striking shade of blue that emerges from its crystal-clear waters, a visit to Cancun will make you wonder whether you are in a dream or else.

The splendorous and mystical ruins will take you on an incredible journey back to the Mayan civilization. The archaeological zone of El Rey or El Templo del Alacrán (The temple of the scorpion) will amaze your eyes, and if you are into nature, you’ll love Xel-Ha, a natural aquarium that will make you feel as if you are waking in a dream.

Visiting the Secret River will take you closer to the Xibalbá, the Mayan underworld, and Xcaret, the most important eco-archaeological park in the country, will offer its charm so you can blend with the jungle. By the way, this splendorous place is why Cancun has been named the second most attractive destination for summer vacations in 2016 by Trip Advisor.

The range of options for tourists of all ages that Cancun offers, go beyond your imagination, from Its trendy nightlife, one of the hottest in the country, to its underwater museum, Cancun has it all for travelers looking to have the vacation of their life.

On the spectacular white sand beaches and the turquoise open ocean of Cancun, the list of activities and beach sports is endless.

ACTIVITIES IN THE SEA

Enjoy a Jet Ski ride. Ski on the tireless waves of the Mexican Caribbean. Let yourself be carried by a speedboat on an inflatable toy. Let the wind propel the sails of a sailboat. Ride a surfboard sliding on the waves or fly through the air under a parachute admiring the landscape and feeling the warm breeze on your skin.

PRACTICE JETPACK

If you are looking for an adrenaline rush, try the Aquatic Jetpack, the fashionable sport that drives you with pressured jets of water so you can fly through the air at a height of almost 30 feet above the sea. Slide forward or backward, turn yourself around, touch your feet, your knees, or your hands with the warm water trailing behind you.

DIVE IN THE MYSTERIOUS SEA

You can don goggles and a snorkel from the beach or go to the reef area to observe the schools of goldfish that inhabit them. If you are a diver or you wish to become one, swim deep into the underwater currents that rule marine life.

DISCOVER THE SEA TREK

Discover the thrill of walking underwater carrying an oxygen tank that fits on your shoulders, walk quietly on the ocean floor and encounter the different species of plants and animals that live under the sea.

Nichupte is a system of lagoons spanning more than 7,000 acres in the heart of Cancun that reaches the Caribbean Sea through the Sigfrido and Nizuc channels. Enjoy beautiful landscapes with crystalline waters bordered by mangroves that form passages where birds find shelter, fish live, and mammals and reptiles coexist and flourish in nature.

TOUR THE LAGOON AT YOUR PACE

Whether it’s in a speedboat, in an exclusive water limo for your group, or as part of a caravan of kayaks, Jet Skis or WaveRunners, you can navigate the winding mangrove canals and observe some curious iguanas, frogs, turtles, crocodiles, and even the tracks of a leopard.

SWIM IN THE LAGOON OF LOVE

Take a dip in this heart-shaped lagoon where legend says that whoever bathes in its waters becomes a mermaid during their dreams so as to summon the eternal love of the person they desire.

REFOREST THE MANGROVE

You can be part of the mangrove reforestation campaign and participate in the collection and planting of mangrove seeds. Learn more about the interesting plant and animal community where the world of coastal wetlands and freshwater rivers mix with the salt water from the sea.

ADMIRE THE SUNSET

Book a tour to admire the sunset in the lagoon and offer a toast under the stars that the Mayas have observed for hundreds of years and that brought magic into their lives.
