Excursions
There are a couple of islands a short ferry ride away from Cancun. Cozumel, the largest island in the Mexican Caribbean, is noted for its fishing and diving. Isla Mujeres is more historical, with handicrafts stalls and even a Turtle Farm amongst its attractions. There are also many dive opportunities.
Further afield the ancient Mayan ruins of Chichen Itza can be reached on a day trip, or stay longer if you want to explore properly. The Mayan ruins at Tulum are smaller and less impressive, but are overlooking a beautiful white sand beach.
Most operators and hotels in Cancun offer tours to Chichen Itza and Tulum, or you can book online through www.cancunandrivieramaya.com
