The catamaran eases away from the Cancun pier as the Caribbean leans into evening; wind and water pull the hull forward while a saxophone threads a slow, warm note through the salt air. Within an hour the skyline gives way to Isla Mujeres’ low cluster of roofs and the pale strip of Playa Norte, where the sand seems to push back at the turquoise sea.
