Several dolphin centers or dolphinariums are open in Mexico for visitors to get this chance. The vacation destinations such as Cancun, Isla Mujeres, Cabo San Lucas and the Riviera Maya are popular for both their beautiful beaches and for the dolphinariums that allow you to swim with the dolphins. In Cabo San Lucas Marina is the Cabo Dolphin Center that is considered as one of the most exclusive dolphin centers in the world. The Wet n Wild Aquatic Park has Altantida where the dolphins stay in an enclosed beach. The biggest dolphinarium chain in the Mexican Caribbean is the Delphinus with centers at Xcaret, Xel-Ha and the Riviera Maya near Playa del Carmen. At all these dolphinariums, visitors can frolic and play or even kiss the dolphins in the waters while the dolphins swim and perform. Once in your life, this activity is really worth including in your Mexico vacation.
Riding the Waves at Puerto Escondido Puerto Escondido or the Mexican Pipeline is popularly considered as one of the top ten surfing areas in the world. The Mexpipe Challenge is held in February and an international surf contest in November. Small and big waves alike are available for both professional and amateur surfers. Puerto Escondido has several beaches where you can go swimming but it is not advisable in Playa Zicatela, the main surfing beach because of strong rip tides and some of the most powerful waves in the world which even bests the famous Hawaii Banzai Pipeline. This place is recommended for very experienced surfers only to avoid the risks of accidents which even the most professional surfers have met here. Another surfing location is The Point where you can also get a fast and challenging surf ride. While Playa Zicatela is the break closest to town, there is the other end of the beach break called the Far Bar which offers the heaviest surfing as the water is deeper and the break is further from the shore. Puerto Escondido is truly a surfers paradise and is best recommended for surfing lovers coming on their Mexico vacations.

One important date to remember too is October 12 which is the feast of the patron saint of Todos Santos that features festival sports music, fair, dancing and authentic Mexican food. Whatever your chosen activity maybe, from swimming, whale watching, fishing, shopping or just soaking up the sun, a trip to Cabo San Lucas is definitely worthwhile.
