As temperatures dip below freezing, Mexico's best beaches remain warm and dry.
With nearly 6,000 miles of coastline, it's no wonder the country is home to some of the best beaches in the world.
Zihuatanejo
Crystal clear water, beautiful white sand and palm trees create an idyllic setting in Zihuatanejo.
The region is home to several stunning beaches, most famously Playa La Ropa, which is lined by palm groves and home to boutique hotels nestled in the hillside.
Tulum
The beach at Tulum is picturesque. Perched below the ruins of El Castillo, on the Yucatan coast.
It is best enjoyed crowd-free in the early morning and is an ideal place for a sunrise yoga session or just a casual swim to start your day.
Cancun
For those looking for a lively beach experience, the sugar-white sand of Cancun is the perfect spot. Lined with towering resorts, visitors will be welcomed by an array of amenities, clear blue waters and a wide range of activities, from shopping and dining to dancing and diving.
Mazatlan
Mazatlan has a number of amazing beaches throughout its hotel zone, but the one spot visitors will not want to miss is Playa Olas Altas, perched along the Malecon and a gateway to the city's historic center.
Visitors can also head to more remote beaches such as Isla de Piedra (Stone Island) where there is a beautiful flat, sandy beach located on a peninsula popular with families.
Manzanillo
Just south of bustling Puerto Vallarta is the port city of Manzanillo. Located on Mexico's Pacific Coast, the city occupies two beautiful bays, Bahia de Manzanillo and Bahia de Santiago that offer several beautiful beaches as well as stunning sunsets.
