What is there to discover in Cancún during your trip?
Cancún is located on the Yucatán Peninsula in the Municipio Benito Juárez in the northeast of the state of Quintana Roo (Mexico). The city is the centre of the Riviera Maya holiday area.
The region is known for its kilometre-long palm beaches and Caribbean flair! Both nature lovers and active holidaymakers will get their money's worth in Cancún! Whether it's relaxing hours on the beach, a visit to the Mayan cult sites or snorkelling and diving off the Mexican coast: Cancún has something for every type of holiday.
Cancún itself is located directly on the sea, which means that the view from the hotel allows a dreamlike view of the vastness of the South Seas! The beaches Playa las Perlas, Playa Langosta and Playa Delfines are particularly charming - enjoy the time out and let your soul dangle for a moment!
The region also offers summer temperatures all year round. You can usually enjoy pleasant 20 to 30 degrees Celsius. Ideal for a day at the beach, for active outdoor programmes or cultural excursions.
Cancún - white sandy beaches on the Mexican Atlantic coast
Cancún has developed in a very short time from a small and idyllic fishing village to a dreamlike vacation paradise! Cancún is especially famous for its sparkling white beaches, turquoise waters and Caribbean coastline.
The best way to spend your time in Cancún is directly at the water or better said at one of the dreamlike sandy beaches! And there are several of them in the region around the city, such as Playa las Perlas or - for party lovers - Playa Tortugas.
If you were looking forward to a cultural trip, you don't have to compromise on your travel destination! Because, in the region around Cancún, culture lovers get their money's worth! For example, during a day trip you can visit one of the Mayan ruins on the Yucatán Peninsula.
One of the most famous destinations is the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Chichén Itzá - the Mayan cult site is just a stone's throw away from Cancún. Or you can visit the town of Tulum, where you will find equally impressive Mayan buildings and temples.
