Hand-picked by computer, CANCUN
is, if nothing else, proof of Mexico's remarkable ability to get
things done in a hurry if the political will is there. A fishing
village of 120 people as recently as 1970, it's now a city with
a resident population of half a million and receives almost two
million visitors a year. To some extent the computer selected
its location well. Cancun is marginally closer to Miami than it
is to Mexico City, and if you come on an all-inclusive package
tour the place has a lot to offer: striking modern hotels on white-sand
beaches; high-class entertainment including parachuting, jet-skiing,
scuba-diving and golf; a hectic nightlife; and from here much
of the rest of the Yucat?n is easily accessible. For the independent
traveller, though, it is expensive, and can be frustrating and
unwelcoming. You may well be forced to spend the night here, but
without pots of money the true pleasures of the place will elude
you.
There are, in effect, two quite separate parts to
Cancun: the zona commercial downtown - the shopping and residential
centre which, as it gets older, is becoming genuinely earthy -
and the zona hotelera , a string of hotels and tourist amenities
around "Canc?n island", actually a narrow strip of sandy
land connected to the mainland at each end by causeways. It encloses
a huge lagoon, so there's water on both sides.
