Interesting tours in the Cancún area:

NICHUPTE LAGOON SYSTEM
Located between Cancún island and the mainland, Nichupte Lagoon is formed by three principal bodies of water: an enormous lagoon (called Nichupte) and two appendages, Laguna Bojorquez and Ingles, in addition to dozens of minor mangrove-lined lagoons interconnected by canals.
 
REEFS
In the area between Bahia de Mujeres, Punta Cancún and Punta Nizuc, are several reefs, part of the world’s second largest barrier reef; the Mesoamerican Reef System. This protected area has been designated a National Park.

ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITES
Archaeological sites are scattered throughout Cancún. Some of these small sites are located in the hotels area. Open to the public since April 1, 2001, El Meco is located six kilometers north of Cancún on the Punta Sam highway. It consists of a large central plaza with vestiges of temples, columns and stucco-covered walls.
El Rey is an ancient Mayan city that developed during the Post-Classic period – between 1200 and 1521. The site, consisting of 47 structures, is located in the Hotel Zone between Nichupte Lagoon and Playa Delfines.
Nearby you may visit the famous ruins of Chichen Itza and Uxmal.
