Mexico offers beaches for spring breakers, eco-tourists, adventurers and those just looking to relax.

Beaches catering to tourists line both coasts of Mexico, and its proximity to the southern United States and its unique blend of Spanish and indigenous culture attract the young and old alike. The Yucatan peninsula is home to two of Some of Mexico's best beaches – Cancun, which is a famous and very developed beach resort destination with lots of nightlife, and Maroma Beach, a secluded and quiet home to a resort targeted toward eco-tourists. On the Pacific coast of Mexico, Puerto Escondido features several sandy beaches as well as Zicatela – also known as the Mexican Pipeline- which is a major surfing destination. Also on the Pacific coast, Puerto Angel is a very tranquil and not very developed spot, and its Zipolite Beach is popular with backpackers.
