- Not so long ago, the entire region south of Cancun was nothing more than virgin white sand beach and dense tropical mangroves. Now this 100 mile corridor, newly dubbed the "Riviera Maya" or "Mayan Riviera" has undergone tremendous transformation within only a couple of years. It is now dotted with many unique and upscale resorts and nature parks, and has gained high acclaim as one of the most desired holiday spots.
- This Mayan paradise offers vacationers sun, surf, plus many spectacular archaelogical sites and wonder. The Mayan Riviera is a fantastic area for snorkelling and scuba diving.
