Acapulco is a popular beach resort town located on the country’s Pacific coast. It is known as a popular beach destination for Mexicans living in the capital of Mexico City due to its close proximity. Here, you’ll find hopping nightlife, pristine and clean beaches, and amazing sea cliffs from which you can jump!
Looking for a more natural and laid-back alternative to destinations like Cancun and Cozumel? Check out Playa del Carmen, which is also located in the Riviera Maya region. This small resort town features crystal blue waters containing coral reefs as well as an ambiance that can be described as complete relaxation.
If you’re looking for a town that’s more than just its beach, Puerto Vallarta is a great destination. Not only is it a great place to catch rays and go for a swim, but it also has a beautiful, cobblestoned old town center which is full of interesting shops and restaurants.

]]>Chilaquiles is another great type of Mexican dish that’s an absolute must-try. It is primarily eaten at breakfast. Here are the many ways Chilaquiles can be eaten, and how they make for an amazing party dish.
Chilaquiles is a versatile dish that can be eaten plain, with nachos or even on a bed of crispy fries. It’s usually topped with a sour cream sauce and onion rings, sprinkled with fresh avocado and tomatoes. Oftentimes, they’ll chuck in an egg for extra protein.
Salsa is one of the main ingredients in this savory dish. While chilaquiles is traditionally made with white sauce, in Tamaulipas (on the northeast part of Mexico) cooks use tomato sauce instead of white sauce.

]]>Here are four that you must order while in Mexico.
Agua de Jamaica can easily be described as a hibiscus iced tea. Steeped with dried hibiscus flowers and then enhanced with sugar and a little bit of lime, this is a great caffeine-free alternative to iced tea.
Looking to give a Mexican drink a try but don’t want to make one of your own in the kitchen? Pop into your local Latin American grocery store and buy one of these delicious fruit sodas, which are beloved in Mexico.
Mexican horchata is different from its Spanish cousin as it uses rice and cinnamon as the base to make this creamy, milky drink. Some people think it’s just too rich, but I think it’s a perfect way to beat the heat.
Now, this is a Mexican drink that you can customize endlessly. What is agua fresca? Well, it’s essentially a fruit slushy that can be made with the fruit of your choice, some ice, and some lime juice. Yum.
