Cancun Mexico Eco-Tours
|
You don't have to travel
long or arduously to arrive at an eco-attraction. Side excursions usually
are day trips, with pick-ups and drop-offs at your hotel in time for
dinner. Adventures include outings varying from relaxing 45-minute tours
in a semi-submarine to view astounding marine life – to challenging
excursions, including overnights on sparsely inhabited islands to spy on
nocturnal creatures or scuba dive wrecked ships.
Eco-tourism can be just
one facet of your Cancun vacation experience. Tour the Sian Ka'an
Biosphere Reserve, visit the Mayan ruins at Tulúm or simply relax on the
beach!
 |
You can even participate
alongside biologists counting crocodiles or bats in out of the way lagoons
and jungles or take a day trip to snorkel beside unexcavated ruins! |
|
Cobá |
Located 180 km outside
Cancun and regarded as one of the most important archaeological sites
because of the remains found there. Cobá has one of the highest pyramids
in the peninsula, the Nohoch Mul. |
|
Tulum |
Archaeological zone, 132
km from Cancun, whose location on the edge of a cliff overlooking the
Caribbean Sea makes it one of the most spectacular in the Mayan World. |
|
Xel-Há |
The park 115 km outside
Cancun features underwater rivers, lagoons, limestone sinkholes, virtually
unspoiled forest and archaeological remains. Ideal for swimming and
snorkeling. |
|
El Caracol |
Inside there is a spiral
staircase, also known as the Observatory, since it was built for
astronomical purposes. It has small windows in the walls facing the points
of the compass. |
|
El Castillo or
Pyramid of Kukulkán |
Largest structure on the
site. During the equinoxes, the shadow reflected on one of its sides
creates the illusion of a serpent gliding down the pyramid. The
spectacular Jaguar Chamber is inside the structure. |
|
The Ball Game |
Once the largest in
Mesoamerica, this ball court has two walls with rings for scoring, and
panels with scenes of decapitation associated with the game. |
|
The Sacred Cenote |
This represented access to
the gods, such as Chaac, the god of rain, in which the Mayans performed
ceremonies and sacrificed jaguars. |
|
The
Temple
of the Warriors |
Decorated with panels
sculpted with animal figures and deities. The upper temple contains a Chac
Mool with columns of plumed serpents. |
