Cheap Flights to Cancun

Would you believe that before 1970, Cancun was only a coconut plantation with 3 residents? Since then it has made for itself a name as one of the most famous beach resort cities in the world, and by far one of the two most well-known Mexican beach resort cities (the other being Acapulco.) Cancun was originally settled by the Mayan Indians, and was originally called 'Nizuc;' the name Cancun actually means 'nest of snakes' or 'place of the golden snakes.' Cheap flights to Cancun are readily available.

There is also a fascinating sea turtle reserve, open to the public for viewing these beautiful, endangered species. The reserve breeds and provides treatment to injured sea turtle, in order to increase their numbers in the wild.
