Is Isla Mujeres really a cruiser's paradise? Episode 13

Описание: Isla Mujeres is a tiny island just off the coast of Cancun, Mexico. It's a favorite spot for tourists because of it's beautiful beaches, numerous restaurants and bars, and glorious weather. Cruiser's often use Isla Mujeres as waypoint on their way north to Florida, west to Texas, or east to Cuba and the rest of the Caribbean. This begs the question, is Isla Mujeres a cruiser's paradise or just a convenient stopover en route to other places. The beaches here are enticing, but the lack of shore access from a dinghy makes enjoying the amenities difficult. The anchorage is crowded and has notoriously poor holding making it important to be vigilant at all times. If you're willing to get off your boat and just be a tourist for awhile, Isla Mujeres can be a lot of fun. The best part is definitely the meeting of friends, old and new. The nature of the island as a waypoint to other places ensures you will run into people you've met somewhere else in your cruising adventure.

WE'RE GERI AND SHAWN. A couple travelers out chasing the horizon, meeting the people, and capturing it to share with you.

We’ve chosen to Roam the world by boat because, let’s face it, the most interesting path is rarely a straight line.

As we learn to let go of our American drive to finish, and embrace the meandering routes across islands, oceans, continents, and people, we hope to gain a better sense of our world and our place in it.

The path won’t always be comfortable or easy to find but, it will always #roam
