After a 20-minute ferry ride from Puerto Juarez north of Cancun, you reach Isla Mujeres, a five-mile-long island that’s a nice day-trip. Playa Norte, the island’s prettiest beach, features a wide stretch of sand, but the waters can have a strong undertow, so always ask if swimming is safe before venturing in. Along with snorkeling and swimming, Garrafon Natural Reef Park features dolphin encounters, kayaking, a zip line, hammocks for lounging and restaurants.
