These activities may fall in the tried and tested, no-nonsense water activities that have been giving delight to the majority of vacationers. One of the best things to do in Cancun is deep sea spear-fishing. The thrilling experience will take you to a wondrous world of sea life. If you are looking to fish then you’ll enjoy great tuna or wily snapper, among others on your trip. Just imagine what you feel after a great catch and after you enjoy a fresh fish for dinner!

Cancun offers a unique way to snorkel especially when you visit Xel-ha Eco Park.

You’ll be pleasantly surprised that there are lots of sea life in the shallow salt water lagoon and they aren’t shy to greet you as you visit their home.

Cenotes are caverns in the jungle that have fresh water in them. These underwater rivers are some of the most amazing aquatic marvels in the world. You definitely do not want to miss exploring the Cenotes in Cancun and surrounding cities.

While most of the cenotes are in or near Tulum, several dive operators in Cancun have day trips going there. So you won’t miss out on this majestic wonder. We recommend the cenotes in Taj Maha and Angelita for the more experienced diver. The latter cenote, Angelita has a cloud of hydrogen sulfide floating between the water at about 100 feet. Once you’re past that, the water turns crystal clear and would look like you are diving beneath a sea of clouds. It is truly a more spectacular experience in person than pictures or videos could ever show.

Wandering Educators ??

Science proves that travel is the secret to happiness. ❣

We all love traveling and learning about the other cultures. We all wanted to dig deeper into why people travel, the changes that people experience after traveling, and how intercultural adjustment could be understood and made easier. ??

Whether you’re traveling for business, on a one-week family holiday, or have sold everything to pursue a life on the road, traveling can make you a happier person by building self-confidence, providing new experiences and memories, breaking routine and allowing you to meet people from all over the world. Travel is good for lots of things, but it can also increase mental well-being – and not just in the short-term. ???

 

 

Travel is the perfect catalyst for happiness, as it has allowed many people to experience the cultural, natural, and man-made wonders of the world. When you travel, you learned so much about the world and about yourself. Travel is the best school there is. You can learn and appreciate more of the other cultures. It expands our capacity for joy, wonder and appreciation of the amazing diversity on our lovely planet. ??

When traveling, it increases our level of happiness because when we learn something we find enjoyable our brains become more active. For most people, travelling is about the new experiences. Recalling memories of happiness can sustain a feeling of contentment long after the moment has passed, and new experiences are memories that can stick with you forever. ❤?

Travel adds to our unique “well of experiences”, thereby giving us more information to draw from as we navigate our lives. Travel makes us healthier, sexier, and more open-minded human beings. ?? Traveling offers one of the best sources of novelty since it brings you to entirely new places and cultures.

 

“Travel brings power and love back into your life.”

— Rumi, poet and scholar

A Traveler’s Guide 

A Traveler’s Guide ??

Travel makes one Modest. You see what a tiny place you occupy in this world. ?

 

Don’t be Scared.

Taking the leap into the unknown is very scary especially if you’re alone. Fear is a powerful deterrent. You may feel scared and nervous but you’re just as capable as anyone else. Don’t be scared to try new things because as they say: YOLO (You Only Live Once). Always challenge yourself to try new things that normally gives you anxiety. Try to make the most memorable and unforgettable travel you can make in every places you go to. Not a hiker? Go on more hikes. Have trouble talking to strangers? Talk to everyone. Scared of weird food? Eat the weirdest thing you can find.

Make friends and get people’s contact information.

When travelling, you’ll make a lot of friends and some of them will become lifelong friends. Don’t forget to get their contact information in order to communicate with them even if you’re far to each other. Don’t let your new friends fade into memory. As you travel you will meet a lot of people where you can learn a lot.

Go with the Flow.

When you plan too much, there’s no room to experience the happy accidents of travel. Always put some flexibility into your schedule and just go with the flow. It’ll be more enjoyable and less stressful experience. You’ll be surprise. Let life unfold. Go with the flow. Force nothing. Let it happen.. trusting that whichever way it goes. It’s for the best.

Don’t be so shy.

When travelling, you’ll meet a lot of people so don’t be shy to talk to them. You have nothing to lose and, in the process, this is how you’ll get over your shyness, make new friends, and get better at conversation. You’ll learn new things and create a new circle of friends.

 

Patience is Important.
– Life is much too short to be angry and annoyed all the time.
Don’t be afraid.
– The world is not nearly as dangerous as the media make it out to be. Most people are friendly, generous, trustworthy and willing to help you out.
Get Lost on Purpose.
– The best way to explore and learn more about the place you’re going is on foot — without knowing exactly where you’re going.

 

” For my part, I travel not to go anywhere, but to go. I travel for travels sake. The great affair is to move. ” – Robert Louis Stevenson

Seis cosas para pensar al alquilar un barco / yate en la Riviera Maya

6 cosas para pensar al alquilar un barco / yate en la Riviera Maya

Al alquilar un Yate Riviera Maya hay que pensar en algunas cosas para hacer tu alquiler y experience fácil y divertido.

A. El barco correcto

Lo primero que debes pensar es elegir el barco adecuado para tus amigos o familiares. Cuando se trata de elegir un barco para alquilar, el primer paso es encontrar el tamaño y el tipo de yate de alquiler adecuado para su viaje. Entonces, ¿cómo elegir el barco / yate adecuado para su experiencia definitiva en yates? Primero es conocer el presupuesto porque no todos los yates ofrecerán todas las comodidades dentro de su presupuesto. En segundo lugar, ¿quién irá contigo? Dependerá de quién vaya en su carta, influirá en el tamaño y el estilo del yate que desee.

B. Barcos trabajan en dos períodos de alquiler

Para acomodar mejor a todos nuestros clientes, los barcos de alquiler operan según un cronograma. Hay dos periodos de alquiler que ofrecemos.

9:00 a.m. – 1:30 p.m.
2:00 p.m. – 7:00 p.m.

C. Asegurando una fecha

En primer lugar, díganos qué fechas está buscando y los barcos que le interesan para asegurarse de que los yates / barcos que desee alquilar estén disponibles en esa fecha específica. Comprobaremos la disponibilidad para que podamos reservar una fecha para usted. Una retención asegura que si otra persona quiere esa fecha, tiene el primer derecho de rechazo.

D. Impuestos marinos

Cuando comienzas a planear un alquiler de yates de lujo, es importante estar al tanto de lo que está incluido en el costo de reservar el yate de tus sueños.

E. Transporte no incluido en la mayoría de los barcos

Tenemos una gran selección de vehículos, desde lujosas limusinas y SUV hasta furgonetas y autobuses regulares para satisfacer las necesidades de cualquier grupo, pero algunos de nuestros alquileres de barcos y yates no incluyen transporte.

F. Puertos en la zona

El puerto es un puerto donde los yates se cargarán y descargarán. Las chárteras de yates están disponibles en toda la Riviera Maya y la mayoría de las islas tienen playas escondidas, bares de playa y paradas de buceo. Lo pasarás genial navegando de un puerto a otro disfrutando de las magníficas vistas de la Riviera Maya a lo largo del camino.
