Mexico Camping
Mexico Planning Vacation Planning: Anything You Want
By Milan Matchev
Mexico is a popular vaccation destination. If you love the
outdoors you should try a little Mexico camping!
With the beautiful Gulf Coast on one site and the Pacific Ocean on the other, with
both ancient Aztec temples and gleaming modern buildings, Mexico is much more than just the United States' neighbor
to the south. (Why not try a little Mexico camping?)
Today's Mexico is still a land of deserts and mountainous plateaus; the smoking
volcano of Teotihuacàn near Mexico City is echoed by nearby pyramids all the way down to the tropical wonderland of
the Yucatàn Peninsula. But it's also one of the most modern cities in the world.
The poverty level in Mexico has been slashed by over a third during the
last few years, and their burgeoning trades with other countries are quickly modernizing the country. It may
not be long before its equal in stature with the United States.
If you choose to go on a Mexico vacation, you're certain to find all the comforts
you're used to at home. You don't have to worry about "drinking the water" today. Though the cities are crowded and
traffic can not just foreign, but alien, culture has been exchanged between the U.S. and Mexico for so many years
that you will find the people just different enough to be interesting. And while in some ways the U.S. seems tired
of itself, Mexico is just the opposite: alive, young, vibrant, and filled with color. (Mexico
camping is very popular and there are some great campsites to choose from.)
Besides, Mexico has some of the most beautiful beaches in the
world.
Baja California: The Land's End
With Cabo San Lucas and Tijuana, one would think that Baja California was developed
out. But it is, surprisingly, viewed by most Mexicans in the same way Americans view Alaska: as a remote frontier,
untamed and beautiful. But Baja is alien in many ways. It has beautiful expanses of desert walled in by harsh
mountain. (It's one of the best places for a little Mexico camping.)
Lush semi-tropical areas dot the coast, and between them are hundreds of miles of
untouched, undeveloped beach and coastline. In Laguna San Ignacio, tourists can view rare California Gray Whales
when they migrate here to give birth and start raising their young.
For those uninterested in ecotourism, many of Baja's populated and more secluded
beaches are perfect for baking one's body to the perfect shade of brown, or to enjoy some of the excellent hotels
in this area. Alternately, beach houses and vacation rentals are a great way to spend a quiet, secluded vacation in
an undeniable tropical paradise.
Cancun: The Night Life
But your perfect Mexico vacation might be more along the lines of finding the
perfect cantina to sit and listen to music while looking at the other beauties Mexico offers. Cancun is the perfect
place.
With its blue waters and white beaches during the day, it seems tame; but at night,
it lights up with the energy and the vibrancy of a very new city; (A little Mexico camping by
day, and clubbing by night.) Cancun is only 25 years old, in contrast with the Mayan ruins just a little
further inland on the Yucatan Peninsula. Whether you like looking at old stones or tanned bodies, Cancun has much
to offer its visitors.
There's much more to Mexico than its far northwest and far southeast. Thousands of
miles lie between Cancun and Cabo, miles filled with adventure and fascination and glorious sights. But you'll
never see it if you don't go.
