Are you planning a Caribbean getaway and considering Isla Mujeres? You’re in the right place. I live in Mexico and have been fortunate to visit this island paradise many times.
Isla Mujeres, translated to “Island of Women,” has a fascinating history. It was a sacred place for the Mayans long before it became a tourist hotspot.
If you’re coming from outside Mexico, your first stop will likely be Cancún International Airport (CUN). Next you'll need to take the ferry or a private charter over to the island from Cancun.
Once you’ve landed on Isla Mujeres, you’ll find it easy to get around. The island is about five miles long, so grab a golf cart and explore the island.
