Cancun is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Mexico. There are many things to do and see while visiting Cancun, including going shopping at La Isla Shopping Village, exploring the underwater world at Parque Nautico Pier, taking a trip down the famous Mayan ruins in Chichen Itza or just enjoying some time on the beach sipping a frosty margarita. Regardless of what activities you choose to do during your stay in Cancun it is important that you dress appropriately so that you can enjoy them all!
Lightweight dressy clothes
When it comes to short-sleeve shirts, go for something lightweight and breathable: linen, cotton, or even silk will do the trick. For pants, try cotton chinos that you can wear with a pair of sandals or boat shoes. You’ll be comfortable in this outfit and still look nice enough for dinner at one of Cancun’s many upscale restaurants.
The same goes for your shirt: make sure it isn’t too heavy—you don’t want an uncomfortable collar rubbing against your neck all day! Pick something that has a little bit of stretch so that it hugs the contours of your body and enhances them (ahem) without being baggy or boxy.
If you have long hair and/or a beard like I do, consider investing in some good sunscreen so that neither gets too red when exposed to sun too long—that will help keep you looking fresh throughout the day as well as prevent any nasty burns later on down the line!
Pack light
- Pack light. You won’t want to carry anything heavy, so pack only essentials.
- Wear comfortable clothes that you can easily move in and take off quickly—such as shorts and a t-shirt, or a maxi dress with leggings underneath.
- If you’re going to be in the water often, pack a few pairs of swimsuits (one for daytime wear, one for nighttime) as well as hats and sunglasses so that you don’t have to worry about getting sandy or sunburned while enjoying yourself!
Wear comfortable sandals
- Comfortable sandals
Sandals are the most versatile footwear. They can be worn with a variety of outfits, from shorts and jeans to dresses and skirts. They’re also great for walking around the city, going to a club or beach party, or wearing at the resort. If you want to avoid blisters or other foot problems during your vacation, make sure that you wear comfortable sandals that don’t squeeze your feet too much.
- Sandals that are easy to walk in
You don’t want to be tripping over yourself while walking around Cancun’s cobblestone streets! Look for shoes that provide good traction on the sole (a rubber bottom will do), so there’s no slipping on wet floors or slick surfaces like tile floors in restaurants or hotels.
- Sandals that are easy to get on and off
The last thing you want to be doing is fumbling with your shoes when trying to leave the house in a rush. Look for sandals that are easy to get on and off, such as slides or flip flops. Sandals that are comfortable Wearing uncomfortable footwear can ruin a vacation, so make sure that you don’t wear shoes that pinch or hurt your feet. If you plan on walking around town all day, choose shoes with thick soles so they’re not too hard.
Packs a few swimsuits
Packing a few swimsuits is the most sensible thing to do, especially if you’re planning on hitting the beach or pool. Swimsuits are light and easy to pack, so it’s a good idea to bring an extra one just in case your first one gets wet or dirty. They’re also super easy to wash when you get home (just throw them in the washing machine).
As far as what kind of swimsuit you should wear, there are tons of options out there these days. You can choose from bikinis, one-pieces with built-in bras, cute print tankinis with shorts attached—the possibilities are endless! However, there are some guidelines that everyone should follow when picking out their swimwear for Cancun:
Pack lightweight shorts and tops
When packing for your trip, remember that the weather in Cancun is warm and sunny. You’ll want to wear lightweight clothing to keep cool and comfortable throughout your trip. Avoid jeans and heavy sweaters; instead opt for shorts, light-colored pants or capris, tank tops, t-shirts and lightweight jackets (like windbreakers). Sandals are also a great choice because they allow your feet to breathe while still keeping them protected from the hot sand at the beach.
If you want to feel like you’re being fashionable even though it’s 90 degrees outside, try wearing hats! A hat will protect your face from harmful UV rays while also keeping it cool with its wide brimmed design. These days there are so many stylish choices available online or at stores such as H&M or Forever 21 that there’s no excuse not do own one already—just make sure whatever style you choose has an adjustable strap so it can fit snugly on top of head without falling off during the day.
Sunscreen is essential when visiting Cancun since there are few places where shade will be provided by trees due their tropical climate – meaning if not properly protected against sunburns then this could lead into serious headaches later down
Take hats, sunglasses and sunscreen
One of the best ways to protect yourself from the sun is by wearing a hat, sunglasses and sunscreen. You can also wear long-sleeved shirts, pants and a hat to provide more coverage for your skin.
Bring a light jacket or sweater to Cancun Mexico
If you’re visiting Cancun in December, it’s likely to be cold. Bring a light jacket with you just in case. If you’re visiting Cancun in June or July, it will probably be hot (but not unbearable). In this case, pack a light sweater for the evening and night time. If you are traveling during hurricane season (June through November), bring a windbreaker just in case. Rainy days are unpredictable but if they do occur during your stay at an all-inclusive resort , bring along something waterproof as well as lightweight and breathable like your trusty ole sweatshirt hoodie or even plastic poncho!
Most important is to wear something comfortable and practical.
The most important thing to remember when packing for Cancun is to wear something comfortable and practical. If you’re anything like me, you want to look good in your vacation photos and not spend too much time worrying about what you’re wearing. That’s why it’s best to stick with clothes that are easy-to-clean (no dry cleaning required!) and lightweight so they don’t weigh down your luggage or add unnecessary bulk as they’re packed away in your suitcase.
It’s also critical to bring clothing items that are easy-to-pack because there’s nothing more frustrating than trying to fit everything into a tiny bag only for half of the contents to spill out onto the floor when opening it up at check-in. So make sure those pants fold nicely into themselves and don’t wrinkle easily; this is especially important if traveling by plane where checking bags can be expensive!
