Cancun
“Cancun is located 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”
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.
The range of options 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 travellers looking to have the vacation of their life. Come into the jungle environment dotted with cenotes, or underground rivers, a lagoon, beaches, reefs, and the jungle.
Explore the remains of an ancient Maya port and savour the mosaic of Mexican traditions that are created and recreated within the Xcaret ecological and cultural park, which has first class facilities.

Playa del Carmen
Xcaret
Xcaret
A few miles south of Playa Del Carmen is Xcaret where you can dive in to crystal waters, swim in the lagoon and explore its passages and caves between the islets that serve as home to a large number of bird species. Float across the underground river and enjoy the limestone rock formations above your head and the fresh water as it caresses your skin.
Get involved with conservation for the preservation and reproduction of species in southeastern Mexico, and coexist with marine turtles, manatees, spider monkeys, and deer. You can also visit the first butterfly sanctuary in Mexico, as well as the coral aquarium, where you can appreciate reef structures in their natural habitat.
Cozumel
COZUMEL
12 miles of the coast of Playa Del Carmen is the island of Cozumel. Dive into the crystalline waters of the Caribbean to discover the second largest coral reef in the world, the Great Mesoamerican Reef, one of the most spectacular areas in the world for diving.
Dive into seven different reefs. Go all over the reef of paradise and enjoy the brightness of the colorful fish that crowd around next to you, or dare to sink during the night to discover the new forms that the same space takes in a different moment that arrives daily with no break.
Visit the Yucab, one of the continent's longest reef that descends into San Francisco.
Visit the turtles at Santa Rosa Reef. Palomar cannot be missed; it is one of the most spectacular coral reefs in the Caribbean. Finish with Maracaibo and Barracudas, the most extreme ones, with strong currents and the hardest to access to.
Cultivate your sensitivity in a free dive around the Chankanaab lagoon where there are sunken ships and the Christ of Cozumel, which attracts large groups of fish that messily crowd around by the pass of manta rays and turtles.
Surprise yourself with what is under the water. Take the snorkel or take a diving course to plunge wherever you prefer. Cozumel has multiple service providers that make your experience safe and unforgettable.
Tulum
“It floods your senses with the mix of Mayan architecture, the scent of the Caribbean Sea, and feel of the green grass that surrounds your feet as you climb the Castle and enjoy a panoramic view from which you can identify any boat that approaches the coast.”
Tulum
TULUM
It was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. One of the most important sites in Tulum is its Mayan ruins, located on a cliff facing the Caribbean Sea; with warm starry nights and clear turquoise waters lies the only archaeological site that sits on the seashore. It is the most photogenic site in the region and perhaps the whole country.
Tulum is a Magical Town and a unique archaeological area in the world.
Today, the ancient walled city of Tulum, which has been operating for 1,500 years, is a protected national park.
It floods your senses with the mix of Mayan architecture, the scent of the Caribbean Sea, and feel of the green grass that surrounds your feet as you climb the Castle and enjoy a panoramic view from which you can identify any boat that approaches the coast.
Under the cliff is Paradise beach, considered one of the best beaches in the Riviera Maya, from which excursions are organised to the famous Mesoamerican Reef Barrier. The Sian Ka'an Biosphere Reserve measures half a million hectares and covers all possible scenarios: beaches, coral reefs, rainforest, dunes and natural wells.
Visit the Temple of Los Frescos, breathe the air between walls decorated with paintings in grey and blue tones. The temple continued to receive offerings from neighbouring towns that came to please the gods of the sea until the beginning of the 20th century.
The Gran Cenote of Tulum is the most famous cenote in the region. It’s a favourite of swimming, snorkelling and cave-diving enthusiasts. Lean over its circular mouth and see your reflection in the mirror-like pool. Go down to the wooden platform, touch the fresh water and take a quick dip to awaken your adventurous spirit. Discover the tranquillity of the aquatic world and float in the caves filled with crystal clear water. Meet the gentle turtles or be amazed by the groups of small fish that swim by and simply enjoy. https://www.visitmexico.com/en/
