Welcome To Isla Mujeres
The "Island of Women"
Isla Mujeres, Spanish for "Island of Women”, is an island off the Yucatán Peninsula coast in the State of Quintana Roo, Mexico where the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean Sea meet. The island is 7 kilometres (4.3 mi) long and 650 metres (2,130 ft) wide and is approximately about 13 kilometres (8.1 mi) off the Peninsula coast. East of the Island is the Caribbean Sea with a strong surf and rocky coast, and to the west the skyline of Cancún can be seen across the waters.
Getting Around on the Island
Golf Carts
The main sources of transportation on the Island are golf carts and taxis. Julia with our concierge service can arrange a golf cart for you. There are also golf cart rentals within walking distance from the ferry. I do recommend reserving golf carts ahead of time during peak season. They will want your driver's license and will keep it until you return the golf cart.
Taxi Services
There is a taxi stand immediately to the left of the ferry exit. Taxi's are pretty easy to find wherever you are on the Island.
Rental Bikes & Scooters
Rental bikes and scooters are available for rental in downtown.
