The Perfect Historic Beach Destination

What was once the land that blossomed under the hand of the Aztecs and Mayans is now a fascinating holiday destination that enthralls visitors with its beaches and blue waters and charms them with its colourful colonial-tinged cities.

Visitors love the endless sunshine, the sandy beaches, the culture and not to mention the food. We love recommending Cancun, 1000s of Irish holidaymakers discover it each year.

Many of Mexico’s most precious historical sites left behind by peoples and empires long past have been designated UNESCO Heritage Sites ensuring they’ll be there for visitors to enjoy for many generations to comes – as have some of the country’s most historic towns and cities. Mexico City, the nation’s capital, is a bustling jumble of major attractions from Constitution Square to the National Palace, the Templo Mayor as well as sites dedicated to renowned artists Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo.

But it’s by the beach that Mexico really shines. Your holidays to Mexico might just make this your new favourite beach destination. Cancun is a beloved beach hotspot, a top resort area on a stunning stretch of the Gulf of Mexico. Whether you’d like to laze around by the poolside, go snorkelling or swimming, visit some ancient Mayan ruins nearby or just gorge on local and international cuisine, our selection of top resorts in Cancun are the perfect way to do it.
