You will realize once you step off the ferry, just how small Isla Mujeres really is. In fact, the only way to get around the island is by golf cart! Sure, there are plenty of beaches and shops within walking distance of the ferry dock, however, renting a golf cart for the day allows you to drive around the whole island in a short amount of time, and get you from point A to point B, much faster. There are quite a few different golf cart shops around the island for you to choose from, that are all affordable and convenient. One of the top-rated shops is Isla Mujeres Golf Cart Rentals. Here’s what one visitor had to say about her experience with this particular shop: “This is the ONLY company you should be renting with on Isla! Alex is the absolute best! Our golf cart stalled in the middle of a downpour and he personally came to get us, drove us to grab dinner and then followed up when our cart was ready. Completely unexpected and exceeded our expectations 100%. Thanks, Alex and the crew at Pepe’s, we will be back!!!” – Nikki

You’ll need to talk to the locals about its current location, since the floating house moves around the island from time to time. There is a small entrance fee. Punta Sur is located at the far southern edge of Isla Mujeres, Punta Sur features not only the highest elevation in all the Yucatan, but it’s also the easternmost point in all of Mexico. That’s right, the sun hits Punta Sur before anywhere else in Mexico and we’ve heard that it’s a glorious sight.

And the best way to end the day on your tour of Isla Mujeres National Park is by relaxing with your family in the Natural Park of “El Garrafon”, which is also part of the Costa Occidental of Isla Mujeres. In this area you can rest after diving and snorkeling, but if you still have energy, you can participate in various activities carried out on the shore of the beach, kayak or jump on the tirolesa above the natural park. Do not forget that the Costa Occidental of Isla Mujeres is a National Park protected by the Government of Mexico, and if you visit it, you must take account certain precautions: Do not use sunscreen if you go into the sea: This is because the chemicals in sunscreen damage coral reefs.

Do not throw garbage: During the journey and the stay at the reserve you should avoid throwing garbage into the sea, since the animals can eat them or have an accident due to this.
