Bright, flavourful and full of beans, and we’re not just talking about the food. With colourful, comfortable diving, white sandy beaches and ancient Mayan civilisations, Mexico offers plenty of diversity for families both above and below water.

Getting to the Yucatan Peninsula is easy breezy with direct flights to Cancun, not to forget some of the best family-friendly hotels in North America conveniently located along the coastline.

The Yucatan Peninsula is also a fantastic place to learn to dive boasting calm, turquoise waters and colourful reefs. Visit between June and September and seriously impress the young'uns with snorkelling alongside gentle giant whale sharks or, for adrenaline-seeking teen, unique cenote diving (or snorkelling) won't disappoint. Inland is equally as thrilling with fascinating Mayan ruins in Tulum and Chichen Itza, horse riding, cycling and zip-lining through the jungle, caving and more.

Rest assured, a Mexico family diving holiday will be a fiesta for the whole brood.
