The world's best beaches
With much of the U.S. suffering through hot, sticky yuckiness, and the Northwest gaining only the occasional glimpse of what could be called summer, it seems like a good time to look at some of the best beaches around the world. Even if you can't get away, these photos might be good for a quick mental vacation. Let's start with Lanikai beach in Oahu, Hawaii.Blue Bay Cancun - News
The beaches of Playa Del Carmen feel a world away from the high-rises of busy tourist hub Cancun. Still enjoying a fun beachfront scene, Playa Del Carmen boasts a 10-mile stretch of white sands looking out to the shimmering, deep blue Caribbean ocean.

Transportation between and around Cancun and Playa del Carmen ...
We will be visiting Cancun in Oct 07. We are staying at the Blue Bay Grand Esmeralda resort at Playa del Carmen. We have to arrange own transportation from Cancun airport to the resort. After researching on-line, we found the US$60 per person one-trip "official" shuttle cost is way too much for us. Now, here comes my questions:
1. Is there any shuttle service to the resort with more reasonable rates(approx US$20 a person per way)?
2. ADO bus: what is the schedule and rate from Cancun airport to Playa del Carmen? How to get the tickets? How far is its station in Playa del Carmen to our destination (Blue Bay Grand Esmeralda), and how can we get to our hotel from there?
3. Rental car: We consider to rent a car at the Cancun Airport that its rate includes full #1): there are mini vans called "collectivos" at the airport.the rate to your hotel is approx.US 20 per person.
#2): the ADO bus is leaving the airport to playa del carmen every 30 minutes and the rate is approx.US 5 a person.they sell the tickets directly at the bus.when you come out of the terminal go to the right and you will find the bus after about 1000 feet.BUT:PLAYA DEL CARMEN ISN'T EVEN CLOSE TO YOUR DESTINATION.your hotel is on the NORTH END of CANCUN….PLAYA DEL CARMEN IS A DIFFERENT CITY approx.50 miles SOUTH of cancun and your hotel.
EDIT:EDIT:EDIT: ****,I WAS WRONG…I SHOULD READ BETTER.I WAS THINKING ABOUT THE TWO BLUE BAY HOTELS IN CANCUN…THE BLUE BAY GRAND ESMERALDA IS INDEED CLOSE TO PLAYA DEL CARMEN…IT'S A BRAND NEW HOTEL.TAKE THE BUS TO PLAYA AND A TAXI FROM THERE.ALL TOGETHER YOU SHOULD END UP PAYING APPROX. U$ 30 FOR TWO PERSONS EACH WAY.
#3)all major car rental companies are located at the airport.i would look for the same that you would thrust back in the states such as budget,hertz,alamo and so on. cancundivers
The Cancun airport has same car rental places that you would expect to find at any US airport. Avis, Hertz, Dollar etc. You can book the cars online through expedia or any other travel site. They will sell you insurance too. No problem.
We rented through Dollar rent a car last year and didn't have any problem, I made the reservation online. The Dollar rental car location is just across the parking lot when you exit the arrivals area of Cancun airport. It would be about a 150-200 yard walk.
They were great, didn't have the compact car I booked so they gave me an upgrade at no extra charge. I think with everything in it cost me about $220 for 7 days.
