Getting around in the hotel zone of Cancun walking or via bike is fantastic, just be careful of that midday heat! And morning heat. And afternoon. A couple of kilometers doesn't look like much on a map but walking under the Cancun sun can make it seem like a marathon. Carry lots of water, lather up in sunblock and take frequent breaks. Always wear comfortable shoes meant for walking. A protective umbrella is a good idea too, not just for chance of rain but for the beating rays of the sun too.
