Mexico Holidays

Overview

A great all-round destination, Cancun is perfect for those seeking to combine a stylish beach holiday with excellent hotels, offering a superb range of amenities and activities. Playa del Carmen and adjacent Playacar have a more compact, resort feel with shops, bars and restaurants, as well as the requisite sandy beaches! For those seeking the real Mexico, Tulum is altogether quieter with well-preserved Mayan ruins.

Cancun

Cancun offers the unparalleled beauty of the Caribbean Sea’s turquoise-blue water and white-sand beaches. During your stay, you can do water sports or other activities: snorkeling, scuba diving, parachuting, or you can take a spin on a waverunner. You will also find plenty of time to relax and enjoy the fine services offered in the hotel zone. Along the hotel strip, which spans more than 30 kilometres (nearly 19 miles), you will find everything from villas and five-star hotels to exclusive resorts and spas.

Cuisine

Mexico is well recognised in the world for its rich gastronomic tradition which offers a great variety of dishes and beverages prepared with innumerable ingredients. The taste, aroma and texture of these ingredients can charm even the most demanding palate and thus turn Mexico into one of the most important destinations in the sphere of international cuisines.

Beaches

The alluring white sand beaches of the Caribbean have a fine texture and are always cool, despite the sun’s intense heat. This region has some of the most important ecological reserves in the country. The crystal blue water is home to a thriving marine life with more than 500 species, much of which can be appreciated up close. The natural beauty of this region is complemented by one of the most fascinating civilisations in history: the Mayans, whose art and cosmology will captivate you.

Climate

Cancún, Cozumel, and the rest of the Mexican Caribbean have the sun′s attention all year round. The warm waters of the Caribbean Sea, and the influence of the constant northeast trade winds, make the eastern coastal region a typical tropical coast with a single wet season in summer. The weather and climate of this region have much in common with that of the Caribbean Islands.
