Did you know? Cancún

Cancun was a small fishing village of fewer than 100 people until 1970, when the Mexican government developed it into a planned resort destination that is now home to over 700,000 residents.

The nearby Mesoamerican Barrier Reef is the world's second-largest coral reef system and is visible from space.

Cancun sits on the Yucatán Peninsula, which is built entirely on limestone and has no surface rivers—water flows underground through natural sinkholes called cenotes.

The city's Hotel Zone stretches 22 kilometres along a narrow barrier island shaped like the number 7 and is connected to mainland Cancun by two bridges.

Cancun experiences a humid subtropical climate and is located in the Atlantic hurricane belt, with its peak season running November to April to avoid the wet season.

The ancient Mayan ruins of Tulum and Chichen Itza, two of Mexico's most visited archaeological sites, are within 1–2 hours' drive from Cancun.
