Playa Norte, Isla Mujeres

Great experience! Started with some confusion as we were told pickup time was 8:15. Waited in our lobby for half an hour before calling and we were told the van was on the way to us. Ended up getting picked up at 9:15; would’ve appreciated a heads up about how pickup was organized - we were worried we missed it! The guides were friendly and fun and the trip was very full. Drinks were available at the boat bar all day. Snorkeling was okay - well guided and the water is clear and warm, but not as much diverse ocean life as I expected. Buffet lunch was good and had some additional stands to buy snacks (enjoyed some churros for 45 pesos!). Downtown time was nice, too. Lots of trinket shops and an optional free tequila tasting. We really enjoyed our time, but were very sunburned by the end of the day despite reapplying sunblock - there’s little shade so bring coverage!
