Dive in the crystalline waters of the Caribbean! You can see a variety of marine species such as turtles, tarpons, corals, lobsters, crabs and many more exotic animals and underwater plants.
Cancun was founded in the 1970’s as a tourist destination because of its privileged location along Mexico’s Caribbean coast. It may be known for its trendy nightlife hubs, white sand beaches, and brilliant shades of blue, but this Mexican oasis is also one of the best places in the world to go swimming with whale sharks.
The luxurious accommodations and restaurants you will find in Cancún make it one of Mexico’s top destinations. Spas, all-inclusive resorts, boutique hotels, malls and high-end restaurants will add on for a relaxing and enjoyable vacation. At night, there are countless bars and clubs to choose from but no matter which one you pick, fun and entertainment are guaranteed.
For a cultural experience, you must visit Mayan ruins! El Rey and El Meco are two archaeological sites located in Cancun where you could learn more about the Mayan culture and heritage. While the Chichén Itzá and Tulum sites are further away, you could choose to take a day to visit them as they are some of the most impressive and famous Mayan archaeological sites. If you take a ride you can also find many cenotes along the Mayan Riviera, cenotes are natural sinkholes filled with fresh water which were sacred for the Mayas and are a beauty to be seen and enjoyed. Find your favorite one and go swim in it, you will not regret it.
Take advantage of the year-round warm weather to sunbathe in the long white beaches and hop in the clear turquoise waters. No Cancún vacation could be complete without a one-of-a-kind snorkeling tour or scuba diving excursion. We recommend you visit the underwater museum with over 500 life-sized sculptures covered in marine life as well as the Manchones reef. Whether you are a pro or a first-time diver, going on a marine adventure is something you cannot miss.
Suit up with our complimentary snorkel gear and immerse yourself in the world of the gentle and docile whale shark.
