Cancun

Cancun has become Mexico’s tourist capital and one of the world's top destinations with top hotels and resorts, great infrastructure, and the amenities to support over three million annual visitors.

Located in the state of Quintana Roo and surrounded by the Caribbean Sea, this city is famous for its white sands and warm waters. It offers a variety of aquatic activities, such as parasailing, submarine tours, boating excursions and fishing. Cancun is a Mayan word that means “nest of serpents”, and is the point of entry to many spectacular archeological zones in the Yucatan Peninsula, making it not only a relaxing resort destination but also a culturally rich urban center.

Cancun has hosted key international events, including the 2010 UNFCCC: COP 16 & Kyoto Protocol CMP 6 Conference. Cancun is one of Mexico’s top leaders in international meetings with over 27,000 hotel rooms, 213,254 square feet of event space, and 23 hotels that specialize in accommodating groups and events. The Cancun Center is Cancun’s largest conventions and exhibitions center with 152,852 square feet of event space located in the center of the hotel zone.

Another option is Cancun’s impressive Moon Palace Spa & Resort which has 2,357 rooms, a capacity of up to 627 individuals in 5 meeting halls and the latest high tech audio visual and communications equipment.

Cancun International Airport is just 15 minutes from the heart of Boulevard Kukulkan, Cancun’s hotel center, and has direct flights to and from 24 American cities and international metropolitan areas, including Sao Paolo, Paris, and Rome.

Things to do

Snorkeling with Whale Sharks in Mexico

In crystalline Caribbean waters, you gently float, dive and even lay hands on magnificent, tranquil whale sharks. The majesty of the animals and the vastness of the sea offer real understanding of man’s place on the planet. Top snorkeling with whale sharks in Mexico: whale sharks stay close to mysterious, unspoiled Holbox Island in Quintana Roo all summer long. When you come up for air, you find trees and lagoons filled with flamingoes, pelicans and other tropical birds.

Adventure in Quintana Roo

One of Mexico's wildest and most singular states, Quintana Roo is so much more than party animals at Cancun. Its world-famous white sand beaches and dazzling azure waters—home to the planet's second largest coral reef—are just the beginning—the gateway to amazing animal diversity, exuberant flowers and trees, and traces of the Mayas' magnificent civilization. Don't forget to visit one of the world class ecotourism parks, such as Sian Kaan, Xeceret, or Xela, who transparent blue waters, and fish give visitors a wonderful cenote or shore snorkeling experience. Or opt for diving on the largest reef in the western hemisphere, where you will get a chance to experience Mexico's unspoiled aquatic reserves.
