Cancun lies in the Bay of Women on Mexico's eastern coast bathed by the waters of the Caribbean sea. One of the most popular tourist resorts in Mexico, the island of Cancun is linked to the mainland where the majority of luxury hotels are found, by two bridges.

Year round temperate weather, crystal clear waters, sandy beaches, Pre-Columbian and Mayan ruins and the Nichupte Lagoon are some of the many attractions that ensure tourists come back to this idyllic resort every year. Between the Hotel Zone and downtown area, Cancun is home to an impressive 140 hotels and 380 restaurants, as well as local flea markets and nightclubs ensuring there is always something to do.
