Your Cancun vacation will be a memorable time for you. Most likely you will want to do and see many things during your stay. Let me help you not to forget the most memorable things about Cancun. Here is my must do list for your Cancun vacation.

1. At least one morning during your vacation set your alarm to wake up and watch the sun rise over the Caribbean Sea. It's beautiful and it's free. (Personally I do this every morning when in Cancun)

2. Take a leisurely walk on the beach or just sit for an extended period and enjoy the beach atmosphere. The water and sand are so amazingly beautiful you have to stop and purpose to enjoy it.

3. Snorkeling. There's a whole new world under the water to see. Cancun has one of the largest reefs in the world. There are many tour companies that will take you snorkeling for a reasonable price. Just make sure you wear sunscreen or your backside will get burned.

4. Play in the waves. I always feel like a kid again when I do this. Just BE CAREFUL! The surf can be pretty rough. Don't venture out very far. A water depth of waist deep is more than deep enough to enjoy the waves. (Only waist deep for very strong swimmers, otherwise stay shallow) Keep a VERY close eye on children if they are playing in the water.

5. Take a trip into downtown Cancun. This is the real Cancun. You will encounter a completely different culture than you see in the hotel zone. Just use basic common sense safety precautions. The same you would use in any other large city.

These things I've mentioned are basic activities, but in my opinion just as enjoyable as all the more expensive tours and recreation.

There are many things to do and see in Cancun, but no matter what you decide make sure you take time to relax and enjoy this beautiful beach destination.
