Tourism is actually one of the biggest economic pushers in Mexico, especially after several real estate reforms have been made in the last 10 years. So what are the best tourist spots in the country? Here is a quick dive into some of the options available: Enjoying the Beaches If you prefer the beach, then you will want to take some serious look into the Oaxaca coast. As a matter of fact, Oaxaca is the biggest attraction in Mexico when it comes to tourism. It is home to the most attractive beaches and restaurants that serve the best authentic Mexican and Italian dishes. Oaxaca is also a great place to scuba dive or go snorkeling. Going for Adventure For those interested in adventure, Cancun is the place to go. Here you will find the right water and climate adjustments to go windsurfing, kayaking, paragliding, and sailing. You’ll find it along the Yucatan Peninsula so if you ever get tired of the beaches you can go about visiting the famous Mayan heritage sites. The Mayans were the native residents of the country before foreign settlers began coming in by the 16th and 17th centuries. Adding all the elements together makes Cancun the best place for honeymooners and adventure-seekers alike. Swimming with Wildlife Then there is Cozumel, which is the nation’s biggest island and the name itself is Mayan in origin. Cozumel, when translated, means Island of Swallows. The island is still a good spot for those looking for white beaches and wondrous coral reefs to visit but there are two main attractions here that really seal the deal. First off there is the Chankanaab Park. This park is one of the few areas that will give tourists the opportunities to actually swim with dolphins. The second area is the Faro Celerain Eco Park, which is a very impressive underwater marine park. Staying in the City Lastly, there is the city of Guadalajara. It is the perfect area for family vacations. The city is actually the capital of Jalisco and is the origin of the famous drink tequila. Families can come over to visit several amusement parks, large zoos, ancient cathedrals, and traditional rodeo shows. Other good cities to visit are Mexico City, Puerto Vallarta, Riviera Maya, and Monterrey. These cities, specifically Riviera Maya, are rich with numerous sites that pre-date the Spanish conquest, which literally changed Mexico forever. Mexico is teeming with a lot of beautiful places for you and your family can go to. In fact, if you are thinking of investing, then making a real estate investment in this country is also an excellent option, considering the number of Mexico vacation spots that you can choose from. Those who are looking for a place to retire will definitely love the idea of buying a piece of property in one of the best holiday destinations in the world. 0 FacebookTwitterPinterestEmail Alice Genes previous post Land in Mexico – A Quick Guide for Buying next post Directions to Viewpoint You may also like Mérida Airport Received Almost 3.7 Million Air Passengers...
