| Cancún (pronounced as IPA: [kan'kun]) is
a coastal city in Mexico's easternmost state, Quintana
Roo, on the Yucatán Peninsula.
It is the municipal seat of Benito Juárez municipality
and a world-renowned tourist resort with modern beachfront
hotels surrounded by Isla Mujeres ("Women Island"),
the Caribbean Sea, and the Nichupte and Bojórquez
lagoons. The mainland downtown commercial section (Cancún
City), connected to the island by two bridges, has broad
avenues lined with shops, restaurants, and hotels.
The older section of the city, which follows the original
master plan, consists of neighborhoods called supermanzanas
(superblocks) that are formed by the intersections of
the boulevards. They are characterized by winding streets
with cul-de-sacs that tend to keep out the main flow
of traffic, and usually have one or more parks and other
green spaces. More about Cancun Mexico

Cancun Vacations
Cancun Island is only 14 miles long and less than a mile wide. This is why you are always near a beach here. You can enjoy the beaches with water skiing, renting a jet ski or perhaps soaring into the skies under a parasail. Or you could join the windsurfers on Islam Majors, or go exploring with a kayak or a paddleboat. Besides all this, there are also local outfitters who provide snorkeling and scuba trips to the various coral reefs. If water sports are just not up your alley, a Cancun vacation also proves to be suited for exploring some of the Yucatan Peninsula’s spectacular ruins, including Talcum, the seaside-facing blue lagoon and the sacred city of Chichen-Itza. Xcaret is another amazing water park that is suited on the sunken ruins of a Mayan port city.
