Cancun is Mexico's top tourist destination. Located on the tip of the
Yucatan peninsula it's beaches are unparalleled offering gleaming
white sands and the clear blue-green waters of the Caribbean. A wide
range of restaurants, exciting night life, a variety of shopping
opportunities and the overall tropical atmosphere draw over two
million visitors a year. Cancun is situated in the state of Quintana
Roo on the eastern coast of Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula, a seal-head
shaped land mass that stares longingly towards Cuba from Guatemala and
Belize. With ancient ruins and white tropical beaches, five-star
hotels and secluded getaways, golf and romantic dinner cruises, Cancun
offers fabulous vacations on an exotic island setting.
