Float Fun Cancun

The float Funny is a small artificial water park located in Playa Langostas in Cancun. This small park consists only of a path of “floats” that form the word Cancun.

And because the waters of this beach are known for their shallow depth and tranquility, it is an activity not to be missed on your trip to the city. By the way, did I tell you that you can also find the letters of Cancun here?
