Local info

About Cancun
If your idea of a good time happens at nighttime, then Cancún’s the place to be. This tourist town has loads of big and boisterous nightclubs and watering holes to explore. But, it’s also where you can max-out the plastic on a serious shopping expedition, soak up the sun on a sandy beach or set the heart racing with fiery salsa. And, along the Mayan Riviera, there are plenty of eco-parks and watersports. Plus Mayan ruins where culture vultures can get their grey matter ticking.
Airport Transfer: Approximately 30mins
About Mexico - Caribbean Coast
As hot as habanero sauce and as cool as the clinking ice in the day’s first cocktail, Mexico’s the place for sun, sea and a laid-back time. Here, you’ve got the Caribbean Coast’s envy-inducing beaches to stretch out on and the world’s second largest coral reef to explore. Head across the dense jungle and, on the other side of the Yucatán Peninsula, you’ll find breaks sure to woo a surfer’s heart at Los Cabos and Puerto Vallarta. Plus, to top it all off, you’ve got the educational factor covered by the Riviera Maya’s ancient Mayan sites and nightlife sorted in lively Cancún.
