Isla Mujeres, Mexico is a little, fabulous, tranquil tiny island located off the coast of Cancun. Its bright blue water, incredible coral reefs, white sand beaches, gently waving palm trees, migrating whale sharks, Mayan ruins, and giant iguanas that walk over your view sometimes when you’re not looking make it one of the best travel locations in the Riviera Maya.
Conceived by Jason deCaires Taylor, Isla Mujeres is home to the largest underwater museum on earth. The clear waters off Isla Mujeres make a great place to scuba dive or snorkel while seeing how thousands of underwater sculptures change in time in regards to coral growth and marine interaction. The scope of the project is mind blowing and the combination of art and marine conservation is great to see.
