Where to go and things to do in Cancun, Mexico!
The dazzling city of Cancun is overflowing with gorgeous resorts, white sand beaches, world-class restaurants and endless entertainment. When it comes to this Caribbean destination, you’ll never run out of beaches to explore or things to do in Cancun throughout your vacation! With so much to see, it’s no wonder this city is one of the world’s most popular holiday getaways. Cancun’s famous Hotel Zone is spread out along a 13-mile strip of land between the Caribbean Sea and Nichupte Lagoon. Most of the city’s top attractions within easy reach when you stay at the incredible Sandos Cancun Luxury Experience Resort, offering a central location in the Hotel Zone. During your next Cancun beach vacation, make sure to set aside some time to experience the glitz, glamor and spectacular scenery that this destination has to offer by visiting some of its most amazing attractions. Here are a few of our very favorite things to do in Cancun:
El Mirador
One of the best views in all of Cancun! El Mirador (which means “the lookout point” in Spanish) is a beautiful deck situated over the extensive Playa Delfines (Dolphin Beach). From here, you can get a great view of the Cancun Hotel Zone skyline and beaches, as well as the intense blue tones of the Caribbean Sea. El Mirador is one of our favorite things to do in Cancun because it provides a postcard-worthy spot for taking pictures with family and friends, or watching parasailers fly past.
Plaza La Isla
The design of this stunning outdoor shopping center is inspired by Venice, with winding canals, beautiful fountains and charming streets. Plaza La Isla is one of the top things to do in Cancun at night because of its breathtaking lighting and scenery. Enjoy an evening of shopping and browsing at a wide variety of stores, souvenir shops and upscale boutiques, and indulge in dinner at one of the restaurants. This mall also has a bustling marina area on Nichupte Lagoon that’s lined with outdoor restaurants, the perfect spot for drinks or a memorable meal.
