  • A short ferry ride from Cancun to the magic of Isla Mujeres! It was captivating, fun and ultra safe. It’s the perfect escape and addition to a Cancun itinerary. We did a day trip but absolutely would not mind spending an extra 2 or 3 days on this beautiful island.
    How to get there:
    Ultramar Ferry 540mxn pp (roundtrip), 20 min ride from Puerto Juarez in Cancun
    What to do:
    Isla Mujeres Golf Carts Joaquin - great rental prices on golf carts and scooters, a block from the ferry terminal
    Punta Sur - southern most point on the island, home to Mayan sculptures and what’s left of the temple of Mayan Goddess Ixchel
    Garrafon Park (honorable mention) - dope natural reef park we passed on the way to Punta Sur. Next trip we’re getting tickets to enjoy kayaking, snorkeling and ziplining
    Playa Norte - right off of Centro, this beach is popular amongst locals and tourists.
    Honorable Mentions:
    If you're spending a few days on the island make time for these:
    - MUSA museum
    - Dolphin Discovery
    - Tortugranja
    - Parque de los Sueños

    When we were there we took the public bus at the ferry. For like a few bucks you can ride all around the island, from southpoint to northpoint. Its like a hop on hop off bus and it runs every 15 minutes. I wish it was availiable on the other Yacatan islands, Cozumel and Holbox. By the way, you must visit Holbox. We went over a year ago for our anniversary weekend and we loved it. We had a suite at the Marriott Mystique, but there are lots of great places to stay there. Enjoy Mexico again!
