Timeline
06:56
Arrive at the Iberostar Cancun Golf Club. Park and walk toward the course edge facing WSW to catch the first light.
07:26
Watch the sunrise. The sun sets toward the WSW, meaning it rises in the opposite direction, but the golden light at 17:54 suggests the atmospheric clarity. Stand in the open areas of the course to enjoy the morning glow and keep an eye out for the resident crocodiles along the water hazards.
08:00
Head to the clubhouse for breakfast. The resort serves a nice breakfast if you are getting an early start, and the facilities are open from 06:00.
Local tip
The golf course opens at 06:00, so you have plenty of time to arrive before sunrise. The rental clubs and carts show their age, but the course is well maintained. Leave the crocodiles alone; they have eaten very few golfers lately.
