Cancun, Mexico is one amazing tourist destination, for sure! I had always
wanted to go to Mexico and I finally got to in the summer of 2012. My parents,
my best friend and I vacationed in Cancun for a week and that trip will always
be happily remembered. We stayed in a big, all-inclusive hotel, situated right
on the beach, which had several outdoor pools, lots of palm trees around, and a
great, friendly staff.
Every morning we woke up, got breakfast and went straight to the beach.
The water was a warm and clean and a tranquil color. I love the beach so much
and that beach we went to was just perfect! Cancun weather is tropical and
humid with plenty of sunshine. Having ice cold drinks, while sunbathing in the
sun or chilling in the shade was only part of what we got into while we were
away. One of the days we were there, we went far into the Caribbean Sea on jet
skis to go snorkeling. One guy was leading the way as we got further and
further into the sea and several of us were following. At one point we were
moving so fast, it almost felt like we were flying over the water. It was a bit
of an extreme experience, but I cannot complain, I enjoyed the ride J When we got far
enough, we stopped the jet skis and got to snorkel in the deep waters. I saw so
many cute, little fishes, I was thrilled.
In the evenings, we normally went to the downtown area of the city, which
was only a short bus ride away. It is very easy and cheap to get around Cancun.
The city was buzzing; lots of people, lots places to dine, shop, and party. One
of the nights we even go to go to a club. The music was good and they had a
special dance performance with male and female dancers and part of the ceiling coming
down as a special effect.
One of the days we rented a car and went to another extremely beautiful city, Playa del Carmen, which was a couple hours away. The beach was gorgeous and so was the architecture all around. We came across a wedding that was happeneing on the beach and had an awesome day.

With so many fun-filled activities and spots such as watersports, tours, zip
lines, cruises, jungle adventures, shopping and dining areas, and spas, one
could never be bored in Cancun! The city is home of the Mayan archaeological
wonders, turquoise seas, a bountiful underwater world, and world-class vacation
amenities. I would recommend it to anyone!
