Colorful Marine World of Mexico
There are a lot of diving options for diving professionals and amateur who want to explore the rich marine life of Mexico. You can opt to go diving in the Pacific Ocean on the west coast, on the Caribbean Sea side, the unique cenote or sinkhole cave or at the second largest reef in the world or the Great Maya Barrier Reef. Some of the more popular places to dive in Mexico are Cozumel, Cancun and Puerto Vallarta. Cozumel has coastline reefs and intricate underwater landscape with dramatic cliffs, canyons and colorful plants that makes it so popular among divers. In Cancun, you get to choose between shallow color rich reefs in Playa del Carmen or go to the Chinchorro Banks which is the entry to the Great Maya Barrier Reef. Puerto Vallarta too is equally famous with islands and bays nearby and has added underwater creatures of whale sharks, dolphins, sea turtles and a host of tropical fish. Other diving spots in Cabo San Lucas and La Paz is a visual display of the colorful marine world.
Riviera Maya Vacations
For those still looking for the charm of a bygone century, one of the most beautiful destinations to go to is the Riviera Maya. There, one can find the old cities of the ancient Mayans. The Chichen Itza is one of the major cities of the Mayan Empire, being its capital where you can go up the Castillo or the grand pyramid and peek at the observatory of ancient astronomers where the most accurate calendars was created. Tulum is another great destination, the only walled city of the Mayans which conveniently overlooks the waters and the beachfront. But this is not all there is to this region which boasts of many other interesting attractions and activities. Xel-Ha is a good place to conquer when youre a nature lover as it has many coves, lagoons and caves in its premises while Xcaret is a Mayan themed ecological park with lots of fun activities prepared for its visitors. If youre looking to delve more into Mayan culture, then dont forget to include the Mayan Temple in Isla Mujeres in the itinerary, as well as Isla Contoy which has beautiful beaches and water activities for the tourist. When planning your Mexico vacation, always include this region for unforgettable unique experiences.
The Surfing Waves of Escondido
Worth including in your Mexico vacation itinerary is Puerto Escondido which is called as the Mexican Pipeline and is known as one of the top ten surfing destinations in the world. It hosts the Mexpipe Challenge in February and an international surf contest in November. Small and big waves alike are available for both professional and amateur surfers. Beach lovers can also take a pick from many beaches in Puerto Escondido excluding the Playa Zicatel which has strong rip tides and the worlds most powerful waves that are even stronger than the famous Hawaii Banzai Pipeline. This place is recommended for very experienced surfers only to avoid the risks of accidents which even the most professional surfers have met here. The Point is another popular surfing area with a rapid and tough surf ride. While Playa Zicatela is the break closest to town, there is the other end of the beach break called the Far Bar which offers the heaviest surfing as the water is deeper and the break is further from the shore. Puerto Escondido is a must in the Mexico vacation itinerary of avid surfers.
