What are the top attractions to visit in Cancun?


Cancun is divided into two areas. Downtown, also known as Ciudad Cancun — and Cancun Island, also known as The Hotel Zone or “Zona Hotelera”. The Hotel Zone is the primary tourist area, synonymous with resorts, catamarans, wild nightlife and beaches. It’s a 15-mile strip of sand shaped like the number seven. This is where most people stay.

As the name implies, there are tons of hotels as well as most of the nightlife and beaches. Restaurants and bars line the only road, Kulkukan Boulevard, which runs from one side of the Hotel Zone to the other.

Apart from the Hotel Zone, the other visiting places are:
1. Any of the All inclusive resorts like XCaret, Hotel Ziva and Grand Sirenis etc.
2. Visit Downtown Cancun to explore local culture and delicious street food
3. Snorkeling or Paragliding near Cancun
4. Exploring amazing Cenotes- Cenotes are natural sinkholes filled with water formed in limestone caves
5. Explore Chichen Itza Maya Ruins -  Chichen Itza Maya Ruins are amazing ancient pyramids dates back to 5th century.
6. Day Trip to Isla Mujeres - Isla Mujeres, which translates to “The Island of Women”, gets its name from the temple of Ixchel, the Maya goddess of fertility. This small island is only 20 minutes from Cancun by ferry from Hotel Zone.Isla Mujeres offers stunning views thanks to its rocky coast and gorgeous bays. It is also the first spot where you can see the sunrise in Mexico. This sleepy fishing village offers a well-deserved pause from the crazy nightlife of Cancun
