Playa Ballenas, meaning Whales Beach, is located within approximately 14.5 kilometer of the Hotel Zone strip. This beach happens to be situated among the most extraordinary structures in the zone, just north of the Cancun Palace Hotel and south of Le Meridien Resort & Spa. Although the beach starts off with some large rocks following Boulevard Kukulcan, it immediately turns into a beautiful and spacious environment. If it weren't a public place, I would go as far as saying that one could claim it's own little piece of beach. The water is can't be described a none other but spectacular with unique white sand and bright blue skies. During a stroll one is greeted with turquoise-blue waters and incredibly playful waves. Being in this particular beach was pretty much like being in paradise. As a matter of fact, hotel waiters come to you right on the beach offering a variety of drinks and meals. Some fun activities perfect for this area are jet skiing, parasailing, and of course, banana boat rides. Swimming, however, is something to be cautious about due to the strong winds. As you walk down the stretch between Cancun Palace and Le Meridien, don't be surprised to see jet skiers zooming...more

Playa La Perla, meaning The Pearl Beach, is located a mere 2.5 km (or about 5 miles) within the beginning of the main Hotel Zone in the renown city of Cancun, Mexico. This beach provides visitors with a pleasant place to swim and practice many other water sports. As it is common in Cancun, restaurants and bars are located along the beach. As I stepped foot on the beach, I couldn't believe my eyes. The proximity of the hotels to the beach is unbelievably close; literally the beach is in the hotel's backyard. Though it was a cloudy day, the water was peaceful and quite pristine. This particular beach is definitely family oriented. I couldn't help but notice the small groups of families relaxing and enjoying their much-awaited quality time with their children. As seen in the picture, you can't ignore the mother and daughter building a small sand castle. Of course, they couldn't do this without the sand being as soft and manageable. The surrounding palm trees can't go without mention, for they give this particular area a very "oasis" kind of look. The thatched roof and the plastic chairs are very popular, particularly when it comes to lounging around or just taking pleasure in the...more
