Mexico’s shoreline
adds to up to 11,100
kilometres made of the coasts in the Pacific, the Gulf
of Mexico and the Caribbean. The tourism offer
along Mexico’s
littoral includes not only the classic beach resorts such as Acapulco,
Cancun, Cozumel, Ixtapa,
Vallarta and Riviera Maya but also small and secluded paradise beaches.
Water
sports have become very popular due to the wide range of facilities and
infrastructure. In fact both, the Pacific and the Caribbean,
have first-class facilities to practice scuba diving. Cozumel
and the coast of the Mexican Caribbean are perhaps the main attraction for
diving enthusiast, as this region hosts the second largest barrier reef in the
world. Due to more rough marine currents, the pacific coast of Cozumel is ideal for practicing surfing, kite surfing and
windsurfing.
