The Great Maya Reef
The Great Maya Reef stretches almost 750 miles; it is the second largest coralline system in the world. It begins at the northeastern point of the Peninsula of Yucatan, in Mexico, and ends at the Gulf of Mexico.

Xcaret
The crystalline waters of its cove, beach, lagoon, underground rivers and natural wells, along with its diversity of plant and animal species, have turned Xcaret into one of the most popular sites in the Mexican Caribbean.

"El Rey" Archaeological Site
This archaeological site is worth a visit and is closely situated in the resort area of Cancún. Here you can appreciate the vestiges of one of the most interesting and complete civilizations of America: the Mayas. These ruins are a window into the history of México, and are Cancún's largest archaeological site. Don't miss these Mayan ruins that were wonderfully preserved and incorporated into this major resort complex.

Chichen Itza
Take a tour to Chichen Itza, the capital of the ancient Maya empire. The mysterious city of Chichen Itza was an important ceremonial center and you can still see the magnificent pyramid of Kukulkan (75 feet high and without a doubt the most impressive monument in Chichen Itza), the Temple of the Warriors, the Ball Court, the Observatory and the Sacred Well where countless victims were sacrificed to ancient gods.

Xel-Ha
