But nice and warm all year around. I spent a week in Cancun many years ago and it only rained once, on the first day. >One option is to take a folding kayak.

And for good reason. The water there is really warm and the snorkeling is excellent. Steve, as long as your making it a "Mayan" vacation be sure to check out Tulum. There are Mayan ruins there and it's on the coast. Pretty much all the other sites are inland. Tulum is about 45 miles from Cancun. On the way you can also stop at Xel Ha, a popular swimming/snorkeling spot. Isla Mujeras is also definately worth checking out. There is a regular ferry out to the Island and you might even find a kayak outfitter out there. *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - All postings copyright the author and not to be reproduced outside PaddleWise without author's permission Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.paddlewise.net/ ***************************************************************************Received on Thu Dec 23 1999 - 05:12:49 PST
