Is it safe to visit Cancun?
Like rent a car and drive to Playa and stay in town VS in all inclusive resort.
Tired of cold. ![]() |

"Safe" is relative. Mexico has more thievery and police corruption than I have ever seen in my life. If you rent a car, it's possible the police will stop you and tell you you did something illegal to extort money from you. You can drive yourself, take a taxi or ADO bus from Cancun airport to PDC.

Well, you are in California...so you will feel much safer anywhere in Mexico, let alone a safe spot like Cancun.

I wouldn't rent a car but use bus, taxi or taxibus. But for long trips renting a car is more fun. But if you want a real "Maya Tour" and travel to ruins, i would use ADO busses and make a roundtrip and travel back by Belize.
From the airport ADO busses to center Playa del carmen and than Taxi (when needed). Or (private) shuttle. Both work fine. The police might try to search you for weed, or not having passport, so you must pay them. Keep most money in your shoes. I would go for a nicer destination. Or maybe do Isla Mujeres and Holbox. As long it isn't Cancun ![]()

- do not rent a car. As mentioned earlier you risk getting into an accident or experiencing a police shakedown. - do not travel by random taxi. Criminals working as taxi drivers target tourists, and will drive you to unknown locations to rob you. - use Uber. Before entering the vehicle take a photo of the license plate and car, and share it with someone not traveling with you in the vehicle. Make sure the license plate, make and model, and driver all match up, per the details found on the app. - leave your iPhones (and other overpriced phones), expensive watches and jewelry Stateside. Use a cheaper model instead. Add local Mexican contacts for police, hotel, and US Consulate (emergency line) to your phone directory. - do not engage absolute strangers in conversation, especially when you are approached on the street unexpectedly. Even if they appear to be former Americans. Some are, most are not. Many are hustling. - carry enough cash to only cover the day's spending. Split the money up, and keep emergency cash separate (in the shoe or tucked into the socks). - keep your mouth shut, and eyes wide open. - when standing around in public, whenever possible, try to have your back to a wall, so no one can easily approach you from behind. Have fun!

Here's a crazy story to give you an idea of what's possible.
Be careful using Uber in Cancun US alert as Cancun taxi drivers block road, harass Uber cars https://www.washingtonpost.com/world...39c_story.html Five Taxi Drivers Arrested In Cancun After Assaulting Uber Driver https://thecancunsun.com/five-taxi-d...g-uber-driver/ |

I would avoid Tulum, that is where most people get robed returning from the beach at night.
If you are looking for All-Inn, just go to Thailand instead. Waste of money for some sun. If you want cheap and more hippie, digital nomad surf vibe, go to Zipolite. I had enough from Playa del Carmen after a few months, too much drunk Americans and criminals. Stayed in front of a hotel 1 month, every night drunk Americans looking for problems and kicked out of the hotel.

True, Tulum is getting very expensive, so of course those tourists will be targets.
I really enjoyed Puerto Escondido. Zipolite has a nudist beach. |

Zipolite has 2 nude beaches, 1 for gay and 1 for all. But 80% isn't nude. Zipolite is developing fast, more and more expensive hotels. Really slow living there. I had a room at the beach for 160 pesos a night. But they have hotels from 5 usd to 250 usd a night, with the same views.

Take a look at any of those gore subreddits. Look what they do to people down there.

IF you're going to Mexico - the safest (not perfect but better chance of surviving) is to go with a recognizable and reliable travel agency. Stay on the resort and never wander off on your own without someone from the travel agency knowing.

The resorts are indeed safer, but still a lot of unsolved mysteries go down there as well.
I was walking into a grocery store here in Playa Del Carmen a few weeks ago, and I saw the security guard zip tie the zippers shut on a 60 year old woman's back pack as she was entering into the store. That's how little faith Mexican businesses have in its citizens. My female friend's locked bike was stolen the other day and some guy told her he saw an older local woman take off with it. As I mentioned earlier, thievery and police corruption like you wouldn't believe in Mexico. I've been robbed by the police personally several times, on BS charges. |

They would zip tie the bags, have them in storage bins, or do a cursory inspection on the way in and out.

Just heard the son of El Chapo that got arrested last month is released and stays in a house not far from Puerto Vallarta in Punta Mita guarded by military. Better avoid Punta Mita

I have been in Mexico for the last 15 years or so.
Considering the size of the country, crime in Mexico is way overblown. It's like if someone from Europe read about weekly murders in Chicago and New Orleans and thought, "Wow, better not go to America..." Cancun and the surrounding areas built primarily to siphon dollars from tourists are my least favorite areas. There's too many hustlers, predators, and much of the culture feels lost. It's popular with those that don't know any better because flights are ridiculously cheap and it's heavily promoted. Merida is a city with a lot of history, European influence, and is one of the safest cities in the Americas. Guadalajara is another cool city with a great temperature and plenty of things to do. Very chic and metropolitan. Mexico City has more crime than the other 2 but it has the best nightlife out of any place in Mexico. You can have all night benders every night of the week if you want. The traffic is unreal though. As long as you don't live in poverty, there is a certain freedom you experience here you won't find back home. |

- the general populations ignorance of existing laws, - overall complacency by the citizens due to their consistently experiencing zero help from public servants - corruption within the public and private sector For better or worse, folks in the US, generally know their rights, most police do their job enforcing the law, and bribing a police officer or judge is possible, but its typically reserved for those that have access to a significant amount of money and business influence. In my 4.5 years of working in Mexico, I personally knew three ex-pats that were murdered. None where in the business of guns, prostitution or drugs. All three were retired. Two were crimes of opportunity (robbery) and one was a crime of passion. While there, one of our Mexican homes was broken into twice, and one attempt failed, all within a few months. In all my years living in different countries, I had a single attempted break-in in Slovakia, and none what so ever in the US.

haha, well I hate to break it to you, but everyone in Mexico speaks Spanish.
Merida is very sunny though, 30 minutes from the beach. Good spot TBH but the heat crushes many folks who aren't used to it. What part of Mexico was this? |

Work was throughout Mexico, but the ex-pats I personally knew during that period of time were all in Baja Norte between Ensenada and Playas de Rosarito (popular tourist destinations).

Looks there is suddenly a lot of stinking seaweed at the coast of Cancun.
Better avoid it. Holbox or the islands in front have less problems.

The sargassum is supposedly coming from Brazil.
In other news, a few nights ago at 10:40 pm my neighbor 3 doors down knocked on my door to tell me they were robbed of their cash, jewelry and MacBooks by bandits who came through the back window and let themselves out the front door. I didn't ask, but I think they are Argentinian as there are many here. There were many celebrating in the streets after they won the World Cup. I didn't realize up to 97% of Argentinians are considered white |
