Top Five Family Cancun Activities in 2019

Parque Las Palapas – Downtown, Cancun

One of the most enjoyable and free family Cancun activities can be found in the downtown area. Parque las Palapas is just a short walk from Tulum Avenue, and this park is the main hub for many residents and vacationers. The El Cristo Rey is the oldest Catholic church in Cancun, and it can be found at the end of the park, but be aware that after church services on Sunday it can become quite crowded. The park has plenty of shady trees and benches, and you can sample some of the local foods from the numerous food vendors that line the park’s walkways. They also have a large stage that holds festivals and events, so check their calendar of events to see what is happening during your visit. Local artisans have their goods for sale in the evenings, and one of the best parts of the park for children is the playground and the small motorized cars they can drive.

Jolly Roger Pirate Ship – Cancun

Another of the top family Cancun activities is a tour on the Jolly Roger Pirate Ship. The Jolly Roger Pirate Ship tour is three and a half hours long, and they provide an open bar for adults and a delicious gourmet dinner that will please even the pickiest palates.  You can expect exciting and dramatic acrobatics, elaborately costumed pirates, and live cannon fire that will have your heart racing!  You can get to the pirate ship from the Playa Linda Pier that is in the Hotel Zone next to the Teatro Cancun. Make sure to plan ahead and reserve your spot as the tour is quite popular and often sells out.

Crococun – Cancun

An interactive conservation zoo is another one of the perfect family Cancun activities to enjoy during your holiday in paradise. Located just nineteen minutes from the downtown area of Cancun is where you can find Crococun. Crococun was previously a crocodile breeding farm, but Hurricane Gilberto destroyed it in 1988, and when it was rebuilt the concept changed from breeding to protecting the crocodiles. There is an hour long tour where you and your family will learn about the beautiful local fauna and flora, and you can even hold a baby crocodile or walk through an open space where fifty crocodiles are roaming about if you dare.

Ventura Park – Cancun

A local water park that is one of the favorite family Cancun activities is the Ventura Park. The Ventura Park was once called Wet ‘n Wild, and it can be found in the Hotel Zone in Cancun. Each “world” at the park contains different water activities at the park, which include the Fun World, Wet ‘n Wild, Dolphinaris, Grand Prix, Aguaventura, and Underworld. The water park offers different passes and packages to purchase, and some of their best deals include food and drinks, too. The Bubble Space Bowl is always a favorite activity at the water park for children. You will be sliding thirty miles per hour down a chute where you will be dropped into a large bowl which makes for an unforgettable adrenaline rush that will have you begging for more. The Lazy River, Kamikaze and the Wave Pool water slides are great ways to cool off and have fun with your family.

All Ritmo Water Park – Cancun

Are you wanting to beat the heat with your family while you are on vacation in Cancun?  If so, then the All Ritmo Water Park is another great choice for you. The Ritmo Water Park is located on the groups of the All Ritmo Resort, but the public can purchase tickets to visit in addition to resort guests. You can lounge in the comfy chairs under umbrellas or soak up the sun’s warm rays. You and your family will have unlimited access to food and drinks while you are at the park. This also include alcoholic drinks for adults. They also rent towels, too in case you forget yours at home.   Family Cancun activities in 2019 can be fun and exciting for you and your family while you are on vacation.
