The catamaran slips away from Cancun's marina and the Caribbean opens like a cool, bright road. White wake sketches the distance while passengers trade city noise for gull calls and the flat, blue horizon. Onboard, the breeze carries salt and the low hum of the engine; ahead, Isla Mujeres waits with reef-fringed shallows and a small town threaded by sandy lanes.
