Top Day Trips from Cancun
Chichen Itza
Discover Chichen Itza, the largest site of pre-Columbian Mayan remains in Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula. Visit clusters of towering pyramids and ancient temples spread out over a number of zones and find out how the Mayans harmonized architectural design and astronomy. Don’t miss the evening light and sound show, where colorful lights are projected on the famous Kukulcan Pyramid as the story of the Mayan Empire is told with music and animation.
Isla Mujeres
Escape to Isla Mujeres, a paradise of white sand and clear blue waters. Dive into the sea and explore the unique MUSA Underwater Sculpture Museum, with over 500 man-made statues built to create artificial reefs. Hang out with sea turtles at the Turtle Farm and don't miss the chance to assist in their release during hatching season. Take a walk among the ruins of Hacienda Mundaca, an estate built by a 19th century pirate. Find a one of a kind souvenir at the island’s local shopping district.
Tulum Ruins
Explore the Tulum Ruins, the site of a former Mayan port city. Once walled in from three sides and facing the sea, Tulum is one of the best preserved coastal archaeological sites from the Mayan Empire. Climb up the Castillo, built on the edge of a limestone cliff, and catch a glimpse of the Caribbean’s turquoise waters. See sections of well preserved murals depicting Mayan beliefs at the Temple of Frescoes. Spend some time at the sandy beach bordering the ruins and go swimming or snorkeling.
