Cancún (Quintana Roo, México)

The second reason: it is a fabulous destination. It has beaches like something out of a Windows wallpaper, a wild nightlife, and plenty of options for fun – one of the most popular being water sports in the Nichupté Lagoon, such as jet skiing, parasailing, flowboarding and flyboarding.

Isla Mujeres (Quintana Roo, México)

The second stop is a short ferry ride from Cancun. This island is so short that you can walk from the northern tip to the southern tip. But in such a short distance you can find an abundance of breathtaking views, delicious seafood restaurants, and super interesting activities.

On your visit you can’t miss the opportunity to snorkel at the MUSA Underwater Museum, visit the iconic North Beach – ideal for watching the sunset -, stroll through the Temple of the Goddess Ixchel at the southern tip, and try a delicious fresh coconut.
