Honeymoon in Cancun

Cancun is a wonderful destination for Newlyweds. The weather is almost always warm and sunny. The beaches are beautiful and provide a romantic setting to watch breathtaking, gorgeous sunset each evening. Almost all of the hotels offer rooms or suites with large balconies and beautiful views of the Caribbean Sea, as well as offering all inclusive packages if you choose. This means you pay one price which includes all of your meals, drinks, gratuities and also many of the resorts daily activities. But, choosing all inclusive is not a must in Cancun as it is on most other Caribbean islands. Cancun restaurants and bars have very reasonable prices and Cancun is also a very safe place to venture out day or night to go shopping or out to dinner. As this is not the case with many of the Caribbean Islands. They are almost always all inclusive because they do not want you to leave the resort. Many of the larger, well known in Cancun offer activities during the day on the grounds of the resort as well as daily excursions to destinations in and around Cancun. So, you can choose to never leave your resort or hotel room while in Cancun on your honeymoon, or explore the area by taking day trips to the Mayan ruins, go snorkeling in the aqua blue sea, or discover many of the outoor and indoor shopping malls Cancun has to offer. If you do decide to venture out, following is a a few couple friendly activities.

The jungle tour- the two of you ride in a two seater small boat and follow the tour guide through the jungle until it opens up and you are in the middle of the Caribbean about to go snorkeling around a huge reef. You will see the most spectacular, colorful fish imaginable. Be sure to bring an underwater camera with you to capture it all.

Another fun, day trip is to take a ferry ride to isla Mujeres. That is the island of women. It is a small island that is a short boat ride from Cancun. Once there the two of you can rent a scooter and ride around the small island. You will see outdoor flea markets, high-end jewelry stores and delicious restaurants. And, you will even see the local people and children coming or going to school or work. Isa Mujeres is a totally different experience than being in the heart of the Cancun tourist area, but it is a must see and also a very enjoyable day trip to make.

These are just two of the many activities offered to you in beautiful Cancun. You can do as much or as little as you want to once you arrive. And, whatever you choose you are almost certain to have the trip of a lifetime- an unforgettable, picture perfect honeymoon. Also, if you are like most vacationers to Cancun you will return year after year. It seems you never run out of things to do in Cancun.By: Charles Pagliaro
