The Beaches
There are accommodations to fit all budgets. Most are downtown and
near the oceanfront. One of the better hotels in Isla Mujeres is
Posada del Mar with rooms overlooking the waterfront. The Cristalmar
Resort and Beach Club has a great beach, pool and modern facilities.
The crystal clear sea watter and the outlying reefs are great for
diving and snorkeling. The coral rocks are beatiful but quite dangerous
when the water is rough. Local dive shops provide day trips out
to the farther reefs for snorkeling and diving and alsoyou can charter
a boat for a deep-sea fishing trip
.

In Isla Mujeres North Beach you can find a topless beach , the water
is shallow, blue and calm with cafes close by. Sailboarding and
water skiing are popular as is the local three-wheeled floating
"bike". Not far away is another beautiful and quiet beach, Playa
Lancheros.
On the south end of Isla Mujeres is a reconstructed ancient Mayan
temple.
Garrafon Beach is the is a good spot for snorkeling, the beach
has a coral reef that is perfect for beginner snorkeling and children.
You can have fun actually feeding the fish.
