Guide
Things to do in Cancún
Cancún is two cities: the Hotel Zone's beaches and the downtown's real life. The ruins, the cenotes, the islands are the reason to leave the resort.
Photos for Cancún are still on their way. Every listing below is real.
Beaches
Isla Mujeres (day trip)
The island: Playa Norte (the great beach), the golf carts, the whale sharks in summer. The essential day trip.
Culture
El Rey ruins
The Maya ruins in the Hotel Zone: the iguanas outnumber the tourists. The quiet morning.
Mercado 28
The downtown market: the food stalls, the real Cancún beyond the Zone.
