Resort in Isla Mujeres in winter of winter? For Americans, one of the relatively nearby places to go to escape the chilly winter is Isla Mujeres (This tropical isle of Women). This Mexican island is only a short boat ride away from the renowned vacation center – Cancun. Some state that the island was committed to the Mayan goddess named Ixche. But don’t worry as people in the female gender aren’t the sole ones able to step foot about the island.

This former fishing island stretches to only about 5 miles, and it is half a mile wide. You are able to reach it by traveling 8 miles across the Bahia de Mujeres from Puerto Juarez in Cancun. Due to the small size, you can easily navigate round the island, such as the downtown area. Even though people have a tendency to make Isla Mujeres only a day trip destination, the island can actually hold its very own as the prime tourist island.

Those who are seeking for a quieter, more serene yet beautiful environment will love Isla Mujeres. An extra plus is the island is in fact more affordable than Cancun. The highlight of the island stay is the beaches. Many of these sandy stretches feature crushed corals and turquoise blue waters. Some travel experts even argue that these beaches are better than those found at other premier Mexican vacation spots like Holbox or Cozumel.

Some of the best beaches around the island take presctiption its northern most tip. The sandy stretch only at that area is called Playa Norte (North Beach). This popular white sand beach comes with bars, restaurants and hotels. Playa Sol may be the less-crowded neighbor to Playa Norte and is also known for its stunning sunset views. Once you head out towards the southern end from the island, you will find Punta Sur beach having its old lighthouse, modern art sculpture park and Mayan temple.

Addititionally there is no end of activities to help keep you entertained while you’re on Isla Mujeres. Scuba diving and snorkeling are highly enjoyable activities since the waters all around the island are teeming with tropical marine creatures and colorful reefs. The best places to dive are the reefs of Manchones, Punta Norte, the Cave with the Sleeping Sharks and a couple sunken ships. On top of this, you can also go sailing, kayaking, take fishing excursions, or arrange vacation to see in close proximity the marvelous underwater sculpture museum from the artist Jason de Caires Taylors. This underwater display is the largest available today in the world. On dry land, one exciting action to take is to rent a bike, a golfcart or scooter and drive round the island.

If you’re visiting with small children; they also will like experiencing the Isla Mujeres Turtle Farm, an endangered sea turtle hatchery and rehabilitation center, operated by the government.

Once the sun falls, the island’s nightlife doesn’t disappoint those who want to stay awake late. But the action just isn’t your usual all-out big party bash. It’s more relaxed, which suits Isla Mujeres’ more laidback atmosphere. Other prominent landmarks you are able to explore in your visit here range from the 19th century Hacienda Mundaca and Garrafon National Park, where the archaeological temple ruins from the Goddess Ixchel can be found.
