Cancún is a world renowned coastal tourist resort. Situated on the Yucatán Peninsula it is sometimes known as the 'Mexican Caribbean'.The climate is warm and tropical, with refreshing sea breezes and temperatures up to 80°F. The most popular months to visit Cancún are between February and May.
Cancún's main beach is a barrier island which creates the shape of a number seven. The east side of the island barrier forms the hub of the tourist district with hotels, shops, restaurants and clubs situated here. There are three main events that occur annually in Cancún: 'Carnaval' is a festival held in February just before lent begins; 'Inmaculada Concepcion' held on Ilsa Mujeres in December displays Mexico's traditional religious beliefs; and Cancún's international marathon which takes place just before Christmas.
For a quieter holiday head to the Mexican Riviera which is to the south of Cancún. Here you can explore the traditional, historical and natural areas, these include the Isla Mujeres, the Mayan Ruins of Chichen Itza and the Island of Cozumel.
Cancún provides a wide variety of activities for tourists including archeological sites, ecological parks (such as Xcaret), swimming with dolphins and numerous water sports activities (such as, parasailing, water skiing, scuba diving, snorkelling and sport fishing).
Nichupté Lagoon is just behind the barrier island and is the base for boating excursions and jet ski jungle tours.
