What to do on your trip to Cancun 

A Cancun vacation means relaxing on some of the Caribbean's most scenic beaches. If you stay in the Zona Hotelera, you'll wake up each morning to views of the spectacular Playa Chac Mool. Be sure to take a selfie at the iconic Cancun sign in Playa Delfines. Another beach worth visiting is Playa Tortugas. Here, the calm waters make it an ideal spot for scuba diving and you'll also encounter jet skiing, kitesurfing, and paragliding.   

Beyond the beaches, bustling Downtown Cancun and Avenida Tulum await. Shop for souvenirs, such as high-end tequila and mezcal, or catch some Mariachi music at the area's many bars. No visit to Mexico is complete without sampling authentic cuisine. Feast on tacos al pastor, a marinated pork dish, accompanied with flavorsome mole poblano sauce. Don't miss the enchiladas or ceviche, either.  

Fascinating Mayan heritage and ruins await on your trip to Cancun, too. Take a day trip to the spectacular Chichen Itza. This step pyramid is famous around the world and was once one of the Mayan civilization's largest cities. The clifftop ruins at Tulum are especially romantic thanks to their Caribbean views. 

Popular areas to stay on your Cancun vacation 

When comparing Cancun package deals, it's a good idea to think about which neighborhood you'd like to stay in. The Zona Hotelera is one of the most popular choices for Cancun vacation packages. This beachfront strip is lined with exceptional resorts where you'll enjoy direct access to the pristine sands of Playa Chac Mool. The Zona Hotelera is among the best places to stay for all-inclusive vacations, too. Close by, Punta Cancun is another popular neighborhood thanks to its varied gastronomy and buzzing nightlife. Here, take your pick from beachfront adults-only resorts and spa hotels. 

To the south of Cancun lies La Isla. This upscale area boasts an idyllic marina, with high-end shopping, quaint canal-side cafes, and trendy restaurants. Meanwhile, Downtown Cancun is an ideal choice if you're seeking local culture. Here, lively bars, family-run restaurants, and handicraft markets await. While this district is away from the main tourist areas, it's still close enough to visit the beaches. Beyond Cancun, there are several more popular resort areas dotted along the coast. These include Playa del Carmen, Cozumel, and Tulum. Each can be reached within a few hours from Cancun International Airport, where shared and private transfers are readily available.
