Cancun in January

A January 2003 trip to Cancun by General Can

Quote: We were in Cancun and Maya Riviera for 2 weeks in January 2003, most days were very windy and cool. I needed my spring jacket all the time. We had only 3-4 days with warmer and sunny days that we could enjoy the pool and beach.

Best Things Nearby:Large swimming pools and a nice beach.Best Things About the Resort:The room is very nice and large enough for four people.Resort Experience:Mayan Palace Riviera Maya is very nice resort, but stay away from the sale people, unless to want to buy a timeshare.

No fishing license is requiring to fish in Mexico. You can fish off the beach. There are a lot fish out there and it's very fun. I saw a gentleman catch 12 fish in one hour.

Story/Tip

Quote:
You can take a ferry from Play del Carmen to Cozumel. The shopping isn't cheap in Cozumel at all. The ferry goes over every hour during the day. The four of us took a taxi for a two and a half-hour island tour for $300 pesos.
