The catamaran eases away from Playa Tortugas with a pulse of reggaetón and the sea opening like a cool corridor of turquoise. Wind tugs at the awning, the boat heels gently and the island silhouette of Isla Mujeres grows from a distant smear of green and white sand to a compact, walkable town.

Arrive Early for Parking
Playa Tortugas has limited parking near the marina—plan to arrive early or use a taxi/ride-share to avoid stress before boarding.
Pay the Dock Fee
Bring about $20 USD cash per person for the dock/tax fee; it’s collected separately from the booking.
Protect the Reef
Use only reef‑safe sunscreen and avoid touching coral or feeding fish while snorkeling to minimize impact.
Plan for Seas
If you get seasick, take preventive medication or wear a pressure band before boarding—the route crosses open water with light swells.
Reef-safe sunscreen
Protects skin and the coral ecosystems during prolonged sun exposure.
Secure snorkel mask (optional)
Personal masks fit better than rental gear and reduce fogging underwater.
Water shoes
Protect feet on rocky beach club entries and when boarding from low docks.
Light windbreaker or rash guard
Keeps you warm on the open-deck return and protects from sun and spray.
