Puerto Vallarta
To start with, Puerto Vallarta is without a doubt one of the best beach destinations in Mexico for summer. Although its high season occurs during the winter months, the summer is also a great time to visit as there are less crowds and travel expenses like lodging and airfare tend to be more affordable. Puerto Vallarta is a resort town located on Mexico’s Pacific coast in Banderas Bay which is the largest bay in Mexico. In addition to miles of beautiful beaches to choose from, PV is known for its water sports, excellent restaurants, art galleries, and vibrant nightlife. Plus, it has a charming small town feel with cobblestone streets in Old Town and Zona Romantica. Make sure to take time to walk along the iconic Malecón boardwalk which is a beachside promenade that is lined with restaurants, shops, bars, nightclubs, and more.
Cancun
Next, Cancun is another top beach destination in Mexico for summer vacations. Located in the Riviera Maya region of Mexico on the Yucatan Peninsula in the state of Quintana Roo, Cancun is a family-friendly destination that travelers from all around the world have loved to visit for decades. There, the beaches in Cancun are some of the most popular in Mexico. The beautiful white, sandy beaches and crystal clear waters of the Caribbean Sea are truly spectacular. In addition, the Great Mayan Reef is located nearby so it’s an ideal place to go snorkeling and scuba diving. In addition to great beaches, the Riviera Maya region is also home to cenotes which are naturally formed swimming holes created when limestone erodes to reveal freshwater below.
