Mexico Holidays

Holidays in Mexico offer a unique contrast of arid deserts, snow-capped volcanoes, bustling cities, idyllic fishing villages, tranquil beaches and ancient ruins. Due to its rich diversity, Mexico accommodates different styles of holidays - from all-inclusive sun, sea and sand, to archaeological explorations, nature and adventure trails, as well as active sporting holidays.

The most popular holiday destinations in Mexico are Cancun, Riviera Maya and Playa del Carmen. Cancun is located on the north coast of the Riviera Maya and is considered by many to be the best beach resort in Mexico. Its fine white-sand beaches, crystal-clear waters and modern tourist infrastructure draw nearly three million visitors to its shores every year. Mexico's coastal resorts are also renowned for excellent scuba diving; the turquoise waters are home to impressive coral reefs teeming with exotic fish.

Holidays in Mexico are not complete without a visit to the country's capital. Mexico city's historic centre is a UNESCO World Heritage Site comprising South America's largest cathedral, breathtaking architecture and Aztec ruins. Evenings are spent enjoying the delicious national dishes, drinking at street cafes and listening to live mariachi bands. Those seeking all-night entertainment and dancing can enjoy the DJs and nightclubs of the coastal resorts. The hot and humid temperatures soar in the summer months, so you may be better off booking between October and May.
