Isla Mujeres Riviera Maya

amazing sunset from north beachIsla Mujeres is located just 8 miles from the main land near Cancun. It only takes 15 minutes by ferry and only costs about $3 USD. Isla Mujeres is only 5 miles long and 1/2 mile wide as you can see by the aerial photos of Isla Mujeres. This is the perfect location to get away from the hustle of every day life. Even I come here when I want to get out of Playa del Carmen (sure feel sorry for me). The waters of the
Caribbean that surround Isla Mujeres are of the most amazing shades of blue and greens you will see. Isla Mujeres is a fishing village and though it is now discovered by tourists it still retains it's charm and tranquil atmosphere.

This is a place to relax have a drink while watching the sunset. isla mujeres 5 miles long 1/2 mile wideYes the sunset are beautiful specially if you go to North Beach. On this beach you will find a few restaurants and great service at Na Balam a little pricy but great place to see the sunset. You can walk in the
water at North Beach for what feels like a mile before it becomes deed.

Their is 2 main streets were you will find the majority of the shops and restaurants. They are hard to miss, when you get off the ferry walk strait until you get to the main square and turn left. This will also take you to North Beach.

You can go to isla also as a day trip from Cancun, Playa del Carmen or even Tulum. The last ferry from Isla Mujeres to Cancun is at 1am and the first one is at 5:30am. They run every 30 minutes.

If you want to visit the entire Island you can take a taxi or the more fun way of doing it is by renting a golf car or moped.

Their is one main bank open 8:30am to 6:00pm Monday to Friday and 9:00 am to 2:00 PM on Saturday. A word of caution, ATM's have a tendency of running out of money on weekends and if you exchange traveler checks at the bank make sure to bring your passport.

North Beach and north end of the isla mujeresThere is only one small archaeological site in Isla Mujeres. This small construction is dedicated to Ixchel, the goddess of love and fertility, its unique location its worth to pay a visit to the area.

Transportation information is at the bottom of this page. You can book the hotels we have chosen in Isla Mujeres directly on the site, just press the link of the hotel and a popup page will appear to see availability and rates.

Have Fun and relax in Isla Mujeres.
