Top Reasons to Go to Cancún
Dancing the night away: Salsa, cumbia, reggae, mariachi, hip-hop, and electronic music dizzy the air of the Zona Hotelera's many nightclubs.
Exploring the nearby Mayan ruins: Trips to remarkable sites like Tulum, Cobá, and Chichén Itzá can easily be accomplished in a day.
Getting wild on the water: Rent a Wave Runner, jungle boat, stand-up paddleboard, or kayak, then skim across the sea or Laguna Nichupté.
Browsing for Mexican crafts: The colorful stalls of Mercado Veintiocho and Coral Negro will certainly hold something that catches your eye.
Indulging in local flavor: Dishes like lime soup and poc chuc (pork in a sour orange sauce) and drinks like tamarind margaritas pay respect to traditional cuisine.
