Best Gay Travel Destinations " Playa Delfines, Cancun

By Ricardo d Argence

If you take a minute to think about it, there is a very good reason that Mexico is quickly becoming known as on of the best destinations for gay travelers. The main reason that Mexico is enjoyed by gay vacationers is the city of Cancun. What makes Cancun so special? Quite simply, it is the beaches. Cancun has some lovely beaches, but there is one beach that outshines the others and that is Playa Delfines. Why Playa Delfines? This short gay travel guide will explain exactly why you should visit Playa Delfines.

It is Cancun because of the special warmth it welcomes the gay and lesbian crowd. They have really retained that atmosphere with its friendly and liberal populace. Add to that are the excellent public transportation and its grandiose all-inclusive resorts.

Cancun is also known for the fabulous nightlife and the gay bars, Karamba and Picante prove this. The Karamba is the largest gay disco while the Picante is the oldest.

Cancun also has great restaurants. Let me recommend to you Perico, Labna, La Pasteleteria-Creperia and La Parilla. In Perico, it is always a party night there. While in Labna, you will get a taste of the traditional gourmet cuisine and La Pasteleteria-Creperia is a small and intimate downtown cafe whose creamy and tasty crepes will make your mouth water.

When the non-believer in Cancun cuisine dines at La Parilla, they will leave as a fervent devotee of the food. The delectable food and earthy ambiance will have you hooked.

Cancun is able to provide the best accommodations thanks to the many lavish hotels that are the Ritz-Carlton, springing up all over the place. You can book reservations at the Villas Tacul Boutique Hotel, Hyatt Cancun Caribe or the Melia Cancun. These lavish hotels will quickly become your temporary heavenly abode. There will be no need to worry about reaching your hotel once your plane lands at the airport.

The cab drivers of Cancun are knowledgeable about the city and know these hotels by name. You will reach your destination with absolutely no hassle, thanks to the friendly people in Cancun.

Cancun is rich in history too. You may enjoy a visit to the nearby Mayan ruins at Yamil Luum or Ruinas del Ray that are located in the Zone Hotelera. Even though the ruins are spectacular, nothing will beat the Cancun beaches. The beautiful white sand beaches of the Yucatan coast are unbelievable and must be seen to be appreciated.

One of the favorites swimming beaches is Playa Chac Mool. It is an ideal spot for families by day, but once the sun goes down the rocky areas can become a little wild. If you are looking for a beach with calm waves and gentle waters, you will enjoy Playa Langosta. This beach is perfect for swimming and tanning and is enjoyed by families as well as partiers. While these beaches are wonderful, nothing compares with Playa Delfines.

Playa Delfines is popular for single and gay couples, in fact it is known as the unofficial gay beach in Cancun. Just look for that grassy slope down to the beach and you'll understand what I am saying. Not just that it is a great place for sunning, surfing, and everything in between. Plus, this is one place where the sun is not the only thing that is burning hot.

You're sure to find a lot of hotties to preoccupy you for the rest of your stay here. Now, if you are interested (and I know you are), Playa Delfines is located at the southern end of the Hotel Zone, just south of the Hilton. It's an easy place to find.

Hopefully this short gay travel guide was helpful. Take advantage of the surf, sand, sun and the sultry hotties of Playa Delfines in Cancun. Have a pleasant trip! - 29868
