State of Campeche

Where to Go & What to Do

The state of Campeche is rich in mangroves, jungle and coastline. It is bordered to the north by Yucatan and to the east by Quintana Roo.

Its Mayan essence is present in every corner, through its archaeological sites, its delicious gastronomy and customs, but it is also a clear example of the mestizaje that can be seen in its cities, colonial towns and haciendas.

Whether your plan is to spend a vacation full of adventure, in contact with nature, discovering historical sites, admiring incredible landscapes or simply relaxing by the beach.
