Discount Cruises to Mexico

Mexico's history reaches back to ancient times, and can still be seen today. At local markets you will find magnificent handcrafts, like woodcarvings, weavings, and jewelry.

If the beach is your thing, then Mexico has much to offer: windsurfing, snorkeling, kayaking, swimming, it's all here. Clean white sand, clear skies, and cool tropical breezes will fill your days, and amazing sunsets will mark the beginning of each memorable night.

Cruising and Mexico were made for each other! Enjoy these fine destinations:

COZUMEL
Twelve miles off the southern coast of the Yucutan Peninsula, Cozumel is one of Mexico's most popular destinations, the gem of the Mexican Caribbean. A world-renowned diving location, Cozumel features crystal clear waters and coral reefs filled with teeming tropical fish and other spectacular sights. Swim with dolphins, explore underwater caves, or just lie on the beach and discover the perfect tan.

Travel to the ruins at Tulúm, and take a guided tour of the El Castillo pyramid atop a forty-foot cliff. Immerse yourself in the local culture and folklore, savoring each sight and sound.

CABO SAN LUCAS
A world-renowned beach party awaits you in beautiful Cabo San Lucas, at the very southern tip of Mexico's 800-mile Baja Peninsula. Not long ago, Cabo was a quiet fishing village; today it's a world-famous resort destination with a wild reputation!

Spend the day on pristine white beaches, working on the perfect tan. Swim and explore the clear turquiose waters of San Lucas Bay, or take a kayak beyond Pelican Rock to visit the natural arch formation of Los Arcos. Go snorkeling at Lover's Beach, and watch the multicolored tropical fish in their natural habitat. Be sure to take home a unique souvenir from one of the many local artists and craftspeople, renowned for glass-blowing, silversmithing, and ceramics.

The nightlife in Cabo is legendary – among other hotspots, definitely check out rocker Sammy Hagar's club, a favorite of celebrities - the Cabo Wabo Cantina - for dinner, drinks and dancing. Try one of their world-famous margaritas!

ACAPULCO
Situated on Acapulco Bay, Acapulco is the most famous beach resort in Mexico. The malecón (seaside promenade) runs along the beaches. There is a square in the center of the romantic Old Acapulco, as well as the famous Hotel Flamingo where movie stars of the 1950’s went for holidays. This lively and fashionable resort community offers snorkeling, para-sailing, water-skiing, tennis, and the unique spectacle of the Quebrada high-cliff divers. Play a round of golf at The Mayan Palace Golf Course, one of the most spectacular in Mexico. Nearby is Roqueta Island; enjoy a tour by glass-bottom boat to view the underwater image of the Virgin of Guadalupe.

In Acapulco you will find beautiful local handcrafts: the finest gold and silver jewellery, ceramics, woven wool blankets, blown glass, and leatherwork.

Don't forget to sample the traditional local cuisine; enjoy some tamales (filled pastries), posole (a stew made with pork, onion, hominy (maize), garlic and chilli peppers) or ceviche (fish marinated in lemon or lime juice).

COSTA MAYA
South of Cozumel, along the eastern coast of the Yucatan Peninsula, lies Costa Maya, winding down the coastline to Belize. Here you can embark on a variety of shore excursions: explore Mayan ruins, ancient forts and villages, or visit secluded lagoons and beaches for snorkeling among the coral reefs. Costa Maya is largely undeveloped, so there are acres of unspoiled coastal land. Small fishing villages dot the landscape but by and large the area is exactly as it has always been.

At the port city of Mahahual you will find duty-free shopping, local handcrafts, restaurants and bars. The style and colors of the port are a modern interpretation of Mayan culture, the cornerstone of civilization in this region.
