Cruising Cancun by Catamaran - By: Chris Robertson

If you've never experienced the beauty of Cancun, there's no better way to do it than by catamaran. Veteran Cancun visitors know nothing beats flying along the Caribbean coastline on one of these beautiful boats. Whether you love to fish and snorkel or hope to find a unique wedding venue, it's time you learned about the pleasures of cruising the waters off Cancun.

Before we dive into the joys of catamaran sailing, let's make sure you know what to expect. Those not familiar with the newest in catamarans might picture them as small sailboats supported by two hulls. That's certainly true of the smaller sport versions, but the word "catamaran" also describes some very large vessels!

A catamaran is, basically, any vessel with two hulls (or sometimes three). The boats you'll find off Cancun are usually sailboats, but powered catamarans are becoming popular worldwide. The sailing version of this boat usually has a "trampoline" suspended between the hulls. The larger sailing 'cats' feature a solid deck, as well.

Dotting the coastline off Cancun you'll find beautiful, multi-level catamarans available for charter. Some of these sleek vessels can actually accommodate more than one hundred people. Equipped with kitchens, tanning decks and parasailing gear, this kind of "cat" is the ultimate party vessel, perfect for weddings and other celebrations.

Speaking of weddings, can you picture a beautiful catamaran sailing into the sunset as you take your wedding vows on-board? With the spacious facilities available on many of the local boats, your guests will remember your unique Cancun wedding forever.

Cancun catamaran cruisers can also expect to see abundant sea life in the fantastic turquoise waters of the Caribbean, and many like to charter a fishing cruise to try their luck. Another exciting way to spend an afternoon is by booking a snorkeling or scuba diving cruise. The area's world famous for Whale Sharks and Bottlenose Dolphins, and being out on the water with them is an unforgettable experience!

Another excursion outdoor adventurers won't want to miss is a private charter on a small catamaran. Help sail your craft through the Mexican Caribbean, thrilling to the nimble way it responds to wind and waves. It's the ultimate "on the water" experience in Cancun!

One more trip you can't miss while you're there - a catamaran cruise to Isla Mujeres. This beautiful island east of Cancun is a beach lover's playground, with white sand, turquoise waters and lots of local flavor. Snorkel the reef, play in the sun and relax beneath the sails on the cruise home. What could create better Mexican vacation memories than that?

When you travel to Cancun, don't miss the fun of sailing by catamaran. Choose a charter company with great references, and look for full-service cruises that provide food, drink and activities as you cruise. Whether you're planning to spend your honeymoon in Cancun or you're bringing the whole family for outdoor fun, Cancun's catamaran charters should definitely be on your itinerary.
