The catamaran eases away from the Cancun skyline and the sea opens like a bright highway toward Isla Mujeres. Salt and sunscreen ride the wind while the deck hums with music and the promise of blue — a first stop at El Meco Reef for snorkel masks and the quick, kinetic world beneath the surface.

History
Isla Mujeres was used historically by the Maya in rituals to the goddess Ixchel; later it became a fishing and small trading community that retained a relaxed pace despite tourism growth.
Conservation
The reef ecosystem is fragile—operators enforce reef-safe sunscreen, no-touch rules, and limited-contact snorkeling; visitors are encouraged to avoid standing on coral and to use authorized operators who follow local conservation guidelines.
Reserve your spot on the Exclusive Beach Club Catamaran Isla Mujeres Tour today and enjoy a trusted, highly rated experience designed to help you make the most of your adventure.
Bring biodegradable sunscreen
The operator requires reef-safe sunscreen—regular sunscreens can harm coral and may be prohibited at beach club entrances.
Arrive early to check in
Plan to be at the marina 15 minutes before departure to board and secure a good spot on deck.
Protect belongings from spray
Use a small dry bag for phone, wallet and any meds — the catamaran ride can be windy and wet.
Plan for a dock fee
Carry about $20 USD in cash per person for the island dock fee; it’s usually not included in ticket price.
