Surrounding AreaLittle more than twenty years ago, Cancun was just a Mayan name, a deserted, sun-drenched island off the northeast tip of the Yucatan peninsula. Along the coastline of about 540 miles, there are numerous coral islands and a reef barrier, the second largest in the world. If you are searching for calm, peaceful days to enjoy the sun and the sand, Cancun boasts some of the most beautiful beaches in the world. |
