Developed from a pristine natural environment in the 1970's,
Cancun today is a bustling resort mecca offering a wide range of accomodations
and entertainment activities for every budget. Its beaches contain some
of the whitest sand in the world - so white it reflects the heat and your
feet do not burn when you walk on them. The hues of blue of the water range
from turquoise to green. Impressive Mayan ruins at Coba, Chichen-Itza and
Tulum are within a two hour drive. At night, the discos come alive and stay
humming a loud beat until the sun comes up.
