Having the Caribbean basin to the East, the Yukatan peninsula with it’s Mayan heritage combined with the Pacific coastline and spectacular surfing, diving and snorkeling makes Mexico an excellent choice for your luxury yachting destination.
Many cultures have influenced what we now know as modern Mexico and there is a wealth of things to see and do while in this country.
The Mysterious Mayan Civilization have intrigued people globally since  John Lloyd Stephens and Frederick Catherwood made their `discovery’ in the 1840’s. Contrary to popular imagination, the Maya did not totally vanish and the descendants of the people who built the great cities of Chichen Itza, Bonampak, Uxmal and Altun Ha, still exist on the same lands their ancestors did. History buffs explain that in reality much of the culture is not that mysterious when understood and that there are still Mayan descendants that practice some of the same or similar rituals as their forefather’s did a thousand years ago.
The Mayan Civilization was followed by for ex. the Toltec civilization that flourished in ancient central Mexico between the 10th and mid-12th centuries CE. The Toltecs built an impressive capital at Tollan and the great prosperous civilization passed on the heritage to later civilizations such as the Aztecs, which regarded the Toltecs as their forefathers.
The Yucatán Peninsula separating the Caribbean Sea from the Gulf of Mexico is not only where you find this astonishing cultural heritage but also has a beautiful coastline with crystal clear waters and white sandy beaches.
If you enjoy snorkeling or diving a trip to the National Marine Park of Cancun is a must. MUSA, the Underwater Museum of Art has more than 500 underwater sculptures that you can swim around. (There are also glass bottom boats available is you prefer.)
Sian Ka’an , “Origin of the Sky” lsited by Unesto as a Natural Heritage site is located on the east coast of the Yucatán peninsula, provides a habitat for a remarkably rich flora and a fauna.
The Gulf of California, often referred to as the Sea of Cortez is tucked in-between the Baja California peninsula and the mainland.
