Island Activities
Isla Mujérés has a vast array of activities to keep the energetic visitor amused.

Also within walking distance of the Casa de los Amigos are ample snorkeling and beach club facilities at Garrafon De Castille and Playa Indios as well as the multiple activities and scenic splendor of Garrafon Park.

Diving opportunities are multiple on Isla Mujérés with courses available for beginners and advanced divers. Popular dives include Manchones Reef and Banderas Reef as well as the legendary Cave of the Sleeping Sharks.

Snorkeling tours are readily available to the Cross of the Bay and the lighthouse areas and generally include all kit hire, lunch on a beach, life jackets and two or three snorkel stops.

We thoroughly recommend a trip to the nature reserve at Isla Contoy which is a 30 kilometers north of Isla Mujérés. This day long trip includes snorkeling stops on route, free time on this wonderful island and bbq lunch on the beach. Isla Contoy only permits a maximum of 200 visitors per day and it is definitely worth the trip. Learn more about Isla Contoy by clicking HERE

At certain times during the summer months the Whale Sharks gather just off Contoy and Isla's 'Captains' offer tours out to view these amazing huge and gentle creatures. If you have the opportunity to take this tour do it, it's a once in a lifetime experience.

Carnival is the most energetic time of Isla's year. Like a mini Mardi Gras the island lets it hair down and parties until dawn. There are parades, open air singing and dancing in the Zocala and a general atmosphere of whooping it up before Lent! The locals will be happy to have you join their celebrations and everyone is welcomed to dance in the street!

For those wanting to travel further to sample the Mayan Ruins of Tulum and Chitzen Icha or visit the parks of Xel Ha and Xcaret there are several travel agencies on Isla that can arrange tours.
We recommend Caribbean Realty Travel for booking these excursions, click HERE to visit their website.
