Isla Mujeres, Mexico
Over 1500 years ago Isla Mujeres was part of the Maya province, Ekab. Aside from serving as sanctuary for the goddess Ixchel, the Maya also harvested salt from its salt lagoons.
Located just 8 miles off the coast of Cancun, Isla Mujeres only measures 5 miles long and half a mile wide at its widest point. Today, it has become a favorite destination for all travelers seeking adventure, thrilling water activitities or simply relaxing on the beautiful white sand beaches.
A perfect mix between old and new, art and activities, Isla has something for everyone.
