In the course of a single day, Cancun's weather can turn from bright sunshine to dark and stormy and then back again.

Cancún embodies Caribbean splendor and the exotic joys of Mexico, but it is also a modern megaresort. Even a traveler feeling apprehensive about visiting foreign soil will feel completely at ease here. English is spoken and dollars accepted; roads are well-paved and lawns manicured. Most travelers feel comfortable in Cancún, while some also feel surprised to find that it almost resembles a U.S. beach resort more than authentic Mexico. Indeed, signs of Americanism are everywhere here.

Four million visitors arrive in Cancun each year in an average of 190 flights daily.

Other great vacation destinations in Mexico are Cabo San Lucas, Playa Del Carmen, Cozumel, and Mazatlan.
