You'll explore and learn at Mayan Museum of Cancun and Cancun Wax Museum. You'll discover tucked-away gems like National Reef Park of Puerto Morelos and La Playa Xpuha. Change things up with these side-trips from Cancun: Scuba & Snorkeling (in Playa del Carmen) and Cobá Zona Arqueológica Cobá (in Coba). The adventure continues: tour the pleasant surroundings at Xcacel Beach, glide peacefully along the water with some of the best stand-up paddleboarding in the area, take in the exciting artwork at Galeria Balance Cancun, and kick back and relax at Playa Chacmool.
