It’s been awhile since I’ve posted, as I’ve been traveling a bunch, but I couldn’t ask for anything more! I just got back from a wonderful trip in Cancun, Isla Mujeres, Playa del Carmen and Cozumel. I had been to the Riviera Maya a few months ago, so this was great because I got to go do a few things I had missed the last time around, such as the Mexican Spectacular show at Xcaret, which was amazing. In the eco archaeological park of Xcaret, we also swam through caves and saw beautiful fishes of many colors in the ocean.
The part of the trip in Cancun was really romantic, as we stayed at the Bel Air Collection, which did a great job in putting together a spa package incredible enough to relax even me, who sometimes has a tough time unwinding. This was the first trip my boyfriend joined me on, and they really made it a special one.
We took a ferry from Playa del Carmen to Cozumel, and had a great time. Cozumel is so much more than a cruise port. At Chankanaab Park, we swam with the dolphins and saw beautiful fish while Snuba diving. It’s a combination of snorkeling and scuba diving…similar to diving, but without the tank on your back. Cozumel has gorgeous beaches, especially at Punta Sur, which also is home to a lighthouse with a beautiful view. Near our hotel, La Ceiba, we snorkeled and fed the sting rays, which was a lot of fun. It was a definite challenge to get to the bottom of the ocean to feed the sting rays before the fish grabbed the fish food out of our hands for themselves!
If your heading to Cancun, you must check out Isla Mujeres, which is a quick ferry ride from Cancun. We took a moped around the island, which was a great way to see a lot in a short amount of time. I could write so much more about our incredible trip, but I must finish packing, as I’m off to Daytona tomorrow. Check back soon for the full travelogue on these and future destinations!
