One of Latin America’s highly sought-after and most visited safari destinations, the country of Mexico is also home to Mexico City, the impact centre for the meteor that wiped out the dinosaurs. Its marine life is the highlight of a Mexican adventure that includes watching whales and sharks along its coasts as well as its diverse birdlife. As Mexico stretches across four large water bodies, it has almost 500 pristine beaches waiting to be explored. Combine your trip to Mexico’s sandy beaches with swimming alongside some of its extraordinary marine life.
