What to do in Cancun

Watersports in Cancun
If you’re into watersports, then Mexico has plenty to offer. The coastal resorts all cater for enthusiasts and beginners. Snorkeling, wind- and kitesurfing, parasailing and sailing are all available. For a different underwater experience visit the ‘cenotes’ or caves, lying just off the highway between Playa del Carmen and Tulum. They’re favorites with divers, snorkelers, and swimmers.

Swimming With Dolphins in Cancun
There are a number of marine parks and resort-based companies that offer the rare chance to swim and interact with dolphins.

Golf in Cancun
Combine sightseeing with a round of golf. Mayan ruins can be seen on some of the scenic courses centred around the resorts.

Cancun Shopping
The best buys in Mexico include silverware, ceramics and locally made pottery, woven wool blankets (sarapes), brightly colored scarves in wool or silk (rebozos), richly embroidered charro hats, straw work, blown glass, embossed leather, hard- and semi-precious stones, gold and silver jewellery, finely pleated men’s shirts in cotton voile (guayaberas), white dresses embroidered with multi-colored flowers (huipiles), which are sold in the markets, and hammocks. And of course, there’s tequila! The best shopping is in Mexico City, Acapulco, Campeche, Cuernavaca, Guadalajara, Merida, Oaxaca, San Miguel de Allende and Taxco.

Cancun Cuisine
Obviously tequila is what first comes to mind, and it’s not surprising with over 200 different varieties. Cancun is home to a restaurant called La Destilleria, an old tequila distillery that was brought from Mexico City piece by piece (supposedly). It features dozens of tequilas for guests to try and buy. In addition to this, no holiday is complete without trying Mexican Fajitas and Guacamole.

Cancun Night-life
Said to be the Ibiza of the Caribbean, Cancun is home to several night clubs as well as salsa, theme and small family bars - and with a resort of 1 million people you’re guaranteed a very lively atmosphere.
