Isla Mujeres, Mexico is a tiny, amazing, peacefull small island located off the coast of Cancun. Its clear blue water, amazing coral reefs, sun yellow sand beaches, gently waving palm trees, migrating whale sharks, Mayan ruins, and giant iguanas that walk over your foot sometimes when you’re not looking make it one of the top travel locations in the Riviera Maya.
Haha, if you read our previous Isla Mujeres post you don’t think I’d miss this one. There are now dozens of golf cart rental companies on Isla Mujeres, and though they do still occasionally run out during the holidays and busiest times of the year, most days you’re fine as long as you arrive before noon. You can pretty much drive to every place on the island, and if you’re there for multiple days, you can spend lazy afternoons on different beaches every day. You can walk or take a taxi most places on the island, but if you want true freedom, rent a golf cart and enjoy yourself.
Mesmerizing views and a warm atmosphere that invite you to relax are the main marks of excellence of this elegant boutique hotel. With a helpful and courteous staff; Casa de los Suenos will completely fulfill every need and wish that you have. See extra details at https://hotelcasasuenos.com/.
Snorkelling in Isla Mujeres: If you are a beginner and haven’t done much snorkelling in the past, the best place to snorkel is El Farito. El Farito, to the north of the island, is shallow and perfect for beginners to see schools of colourful fish. Los Machones is more suited to advance snorkellers with a depth of 35 – 40 feet. Other amazing snorkel sites include MUSA , Garrafon Natural Reef Park and Isla Contoy. For more snorkelling and diving, don’t miss Mexico’s most popular island and all of the incredible things to do in Cozumel! Experience The Zocalo: Every Mexican town has a central square called a Zocalo (it’s one of the best things to do in Mexico City as well). I recommend visiting the Zocalo on Isla Mujeres in the evening, as you’ll find food vendors selling tasty local Mexican street food. Plus, there’s music, entertainment and dancing.
If white sand, warm water, and hot sun is your thing, you will have no problem spending a full day at Playa Norte, the most popular beach on Isla Mujeres. Located just a ten-minute walk from the ferry pier, Playa Norte is the perfect location to be your first and last stop, of your day. While it does get crowded with tourists, it is the best beach to take your children, as the water is very calm and shallow for a long distance out. While you are there, make sure to check out the various bars and restaurants along the beach, some of which deliver your food and drinks to you, out in the water! Can you think of a better scenario than that? “Of the best beaches I have visited. Their colors are stunning and crystal clear waters. Recommend to bring your viewfinder, you can find many fish of all sizes and colors.” – Alan
