If you are staying in a residence or guesthouse in Cancún, such as Casa Namal, La Amada Residences Luxury, Casa Palmera by B&G, Residence Inn, the public beaches of the Hotel Zone and Playa Mujeres are open to everyone. Sessions start at 245 USD.
Not everyone in Cancún stays at a big resort. Residences, condos and guesthouses are common, and the good news is that Mexico's beaches are public. Here is how we plan a session for their guests.

Where We Shoot
The calm north shore. Playa Langosta and Playa Tortugas, on the Bahía de Mujeres, have shallow, calm water, good for children.
The open Caribbean. Playa Delfines, with its dunes and CANCÚN sign, is the big public beach of the south Hotel Zone.
The lagoon at sunset. The Nichupté lagoon is where Cancún's sunset happens over water.
