Cancun is regarded as the main destination in Mexico for clubbing, partying and living on the edge.

Everyday hundreds of tourists arrive to spend a couple of days at the ultimate Mexican party center. During daylight, the gorgeous white-sands beaches receive multitudes of  people doing water sports and enjoying the crystal-clear turquoise waters. From swimming to diving, they have lots of fun.

Sometimes, mostly on summer, beaches become so full that It is almost impossible to take a look from the amazing waters. If that were the case, forget getting that tan or playing in the sand.

Thanks god!, there are always some activities you can do far away from crowds. Perhaps, the hidden paradises in Cancun and Riviera Maya are the best aspect of these destinations. Whether they are in the forest or open sea, the truth is that each one has its own magic and enchantment. However, in my opinion, the most beautiful ones are in the ocean. I can’t tell why water landscapes are so magnificent. There are simply so amazing that no one can just visit them once.

If you are sea lover, I will share some water tours you must go on in Cancun and Riviera Maya.
