Mexico has it all: breathtaking mountains, ancient cities and a vibrant nightlife. Whether you choose the Caribbean or the Pacific coast, you’ll find white sand, coral reefs and deep blue waters. The Gulf of Mexico’s Veracruz Coral Reef System National Park is a priceless treasure and back on land, Veracruz offers a fantastic mix of fast-paced city life and traditional Mexican culture.

For total paradise, head south to the Isla Holbox. An incredible getaway, the island is a well kept secret and is barely visited by anyone. A holiday to Holbox is like stepping back in time to the 50s or 60s, with the odd opulent villa the only thing to interrupt the otherwise untouched landscape.

On the west coast, set sail on the Sea of Cortes in search of killer whales and leatherback turtles. Better known as the Gulf of California, the Mars de Cortes is home to some of the most spectacular migratory wildlife on the planet. Cast your line in the golden sunshine and do a bit of fishing. With the resurgence of yellowfin tuna in the Cortes, you could end up hooking some of the biggest fish the world has to offer.

Further inland, sees the streets of San Miguel flood with men desperate to show their machismo. Irate bulls are let loose on the brave (or should that be foolish) contestants and have one hour to take out their frustrations on as many people as they can.

As well as the bull run, the town erupts into one of the biggest three day long street parties ever – and San Miguel isn’t the largest of places.

What about the food? Can Mexico match the culinary heights to be experienced in Paris and London? Yes! With the plentiful Gulf supplying some of the finest fish in South America, it’s safe to say that the food you’ll experience here will be some of the best you’ll ever have. Mexico City could quite possibly be the best place to go if you want to take your taste buds to the next level. And if you’re not scared of jalapeno peppers and pungent herbs you can only get in Central America, you will not be disappointed. So get your glad rags out and get yourself on a holiday to Mexico.
