Aside from the pristine beaches and the beautiful greenery, the people of the island are truly what makes it so special. The fishing culture is alive and well on Isla, and most people dedicate their lives to sharing the wonders of the sea with visitors through scuba diving, snorkeling, wingdiving, fishing tours, whale shark expeditions, and much more. Due to its proximity to the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef, the second largest coral reef system in the world, and the turtles that visit every year to nest, there is a strong push for ecological sustainability and marine conservation. Tortugranja, in the Sac Bajo peninsula, specialize in the protection of momma turtles, eggs, and hatchlings during the nesting season (July to October), and fund their programs with help from the thousands of visitors who come to see their aquariums, turtle care facilities, and educational installations. Although the island may be famous for what lies off its coasts, there is much to do on land, as well. Isla Mujeres boasts various historical and archeological sites, including the temple to the goddess Ixchel in Punta Sur, where you can see the first sunrise in all of Mexico (due to its eastern-most position) and walk along the rocky paths leading to and from the ruins. During turtle mating season (May to June), you may even be able to spot some happy terrapin couples from the cliffs! Isla Mujeres is proud to boast some of the top-ranked beaches in the world, and the #1 ranked beach in all of Mexico.
