ISLA MUJERES

The Island of Isla Mujeres is my wife’s favorite place in all the Mayan Riviera. This is a very small island. It is only 7 kilometers long and 1 kilometer wide. There are 2 ways to get to the island. You can take a fast boat from Cancun and get there in 15 minutes or you can take the ferry from puerto Juarez and get there in about 45 minutes. What would I recommend? Well the fast boat costs about $6 US and the ferry about $1.50 US. I specially like to take the ferry because it is a slow ride and you are able to enjoy the view of the caribbean sea as well as from time to time see some sea life such as sting rays or even dolphins.

The reason why this is my wife’s favorite place is because the beaches in the island are very nice and clean and the water is really calm. She also likes to take a boat ride around the island and feed the colorful fish. What I specially like about this island is the water. It is amazingly clear and really good for snorkeling. The only problem is that if you want to snorkle you have to etheir rent a boat or pay for a tour. There is also a nice natural park called Garrafon. If you are able to pay to get in, you will be able to snorkle as well.

So why don’t you include Isla Mujeres in yor itinerary when you come to Cancun again? If you do, you will have an unforgettable vacation.
