About Cancun Mexico

Once you come to Cancun you will understand why this is one of the world's number one vacation destinations. After your Cancun fishing excursions, take some time to visit some of the great areas in and around Cancun that have made this sleepy fishing village such a famous hot spot.

Isla Mujeres

Isla Mujeres is one of the most famous destinations off the coast of Cancun Mexico. Isla Mujeres is an ancient island whose pristine beaches, sprawling protected parks, and excellent water sport facilities bring in hundreds of travelers daily. Each day, ferry boats run from the coast of Cancun to Isla Mujeres every half hour from 6AM to 8:30PM and then once an hour from 8:30PM to 11:30PM. Most people who make it out to Isla Mujeres come to spend the day, but there are several accommodations available on the island (including both budget hotels and luxurious resorts). In addition to the beautiful natural settings offered by Isla Mujeres, the island also has one of the Yucatan Peninsula's best dolphin facilities where you get to meet, interact, and swim bottlenose dolphins. You can also eat at some great local restaurants offering a variety of cuisines including Caribbean fare, Mexican food, Mediterranean, Hebrew, Thai and Cuban food.

Hotel Zone

When coming to Cancun you will have many options of places to stay and places to visit. The most popular place to stay in Cancun is the stretch of oceanfront hotels and resorts known as the Hotel Zone. This Hotel Zone is home to the most well-known and most luxurious Cancun hotels and resorts. It lies on 14 miles of beach and faces the Caribbean Sea, the Bay, and the Nichupte Lagoon. In fact, it is from the Hotel Zone that many of the top Cancun tours and activities depart. While Downtown Cancun is the heart of Cancun nightlife, dining, and history, it is the Hotel Zone that is the heart of Cancun's hotel life, beaches, and water sports.
