When it comes to Mexico, you probably think of one of its most famous destinations - Cancun!
This Mexican city is the option of many people to take a vacation and enjoy its climate and paradisiacal landscapes. And the best thing is that, besides the beaches, there are many other options to enjoy: sightseeing, entertainment, and exciting nightlife.
And the beaches, well - this is one of the main reasons people come to Cancun! Its beautiful beaches are enchanting, with a completely blue sea and white sands that leave tourists mesmerized with such perfection. Most of the hotels face the ocean, which will make it easy to get to the beach, not to mention the view you can get from your room!
Furthermore, those who think that the region only has beaches are mistaken. There are also many tourist attractions - and millennial ones at that! You can visit pre-Columbian constructions and Mayan culture, some of them are a few miles away from Cancun, but for the experience it causes, it is well worth it!

5. Archeological site and Cenotes of Tulum
This archaeological site is situated on a beach, with several Mayan ruins. In the past it was a Mayan city used as a port of this great culture. Today, it is one of the hottest places in Mexico.
Another point still in Tulum, is the visit to its cenotes - these are cavities with crystalline waters, much used by the Mayas to perform their rituals.
6. Koba
This is another Mexican archeological site, and it is about 170 km from Cancun. There you will walk among many ruins and jungle. Not to mention you can climb a 40 meter high pyramid and enjoy the view! And if you prefer, you can rent a bike and ride around the sites at your leisure.

Remember that we talked about this island above? This is a small island near Cancun, with very calm waters and a very nice atmosphere. On the island you have the option to visit an underwater museum, MUSA, a very interesting experience! And if you like even more unique experiences - go scuba diving on the island, and see even more of the marine life!
