It is December and we are in the winter season in a large part of Mexico, also, there are still a few more cold months to go, so a little trip of a few days to one of the beautiful beaches that you find in the country would not hurt at all. The people likes to travel to Mexico because they find the weather that they never havein their countries.
The good thing about living in Mexico is that you don’t have to travel enormous distances to find the sea, a couple of hours by plane and warmth and a beautiful sea await you; Cancun , the Riviera Maya and the beautiful beaches of Yucatan such as Sisal , Celestún , await you in the east of the country; if you have no other options to the west, Vallarta , Los Cabos , the Riviera Nayarit , Huatulco , Puerto Escondido , Manzanillo , Acapulco and of course Mazatlán are part of those options.
