11 days in Cancun Itinerary

Few destinations in Mexico dazzle visitors quite like Cancun, a modern resort town filled with glitzy hotels sitting on picturesque and well-developed Caribbean beaches.

Change things up with these side-trips from Cancun: Cobá Zona Arqueológica Cobá (in Coba), Walking tours (in Valladolid) and Playa del Carmen (Scuba & Snorkeling, Nature & Wildlife Tours, &more). There's still lots to do: get outside with Outdoor Activities, stroll through Playa Norte, tee off at Cancun Golf Club at Pok-Ta-Pok, and admire nature's wide array of creatures at Interactive Aquarium.

To find photos, traveler tips, ratings, and other tourist information, use the Cancun day trip planning site.

If you are flying in from United States, the closest major aiports are Cancún International Airport and Cozumel International Airport. In February, plan for daily highs up to 81°F, and evening lows to 68°F.
