Isla Mujeres Golf Cart Rentals

Isla Mujeres Golf Cart Rentals And Getting Around The Breathtaking Island

Isla Mujeres golf cart rentals are an essential for anyone wishing to really travel around the island.

It is a relatively small place, about 5 miles (7km) long.

So if you wish to move around the entire island during your stay, golf cart rentals are the thing to do.

Because this beautiful Mexican island is becoming more and more popular, it is highly recommended that you book your golf cart rental in advance. That way you can be assured of having transportation when you arrive. And as such can just relax and enjoy your time here with ease.

One thing you will note, while you are checking through this site, is how many of our vacation rentals have golf cart rentals parked out front.

Golf Cart Rentals Are The Prime Choice Of Transport To Travel Around The Island

Traveling by golf cart is super easy.

It’s also super comfortable.

For one you get to enjoy the fresh air, while still being partially shaded from the tropical sun around midday. Plus you can park them with great ease in a huge number of places. The island is really well set up for them, and they have become the transport of choice for a huge number of people vacationing here.

Locals have golf carts as well but most use mopeds to get around.  Pretty cool seeing a family of 4 driving a moped around.

Safer bet is the golf cart though.

So travel by golf cart really is an amazing choice.

Plus when you are booking your vacation rental with us, we can arrange golf cart rentals for you at the same time.

Then you can be assured of easy travel around the isla when you arrive.

So if you are wondering whether you need to get a taxi. Relax. A golf cart is far easier!

Check Out All The Great Places On The Island With Ease Thanks To Golf Cart Rentals

While Isla Mujeres is a relatively small place, at 5 miles long and with the tropical climate, golf carts are far more comfortable than walking long distances. Especially midday, when you may well wish to retreat into the shade or the cool to rest. After all, much of Mexico and the Spanish speaking world does take a siesta in the afternoon.

So travel by golf cart to reach the slightly more out of the way places, is worthwhile. Here are four great suggestions for places to visit with ease using your rental golf cart.

Punta Sur is at the southern most tip of Isla Mujeres and features what is known as Cliff of the Dawn.

The striking cliffs offer breathtaking panoramas and ocean views.

As the name Cliff of the Dawn suggests this is an amazing place to catch the beauty of the tropical sunrise, coming up through the Caribbean. Especially when enjoyed with someone special.

The cliff area has a large number of resident Iguanas. They are relatively safe to be around, the only caution being to treat them with respect as you would with other wild animals.

As a note Punta Sur is also the eastern most point of Mexico. So a great place for a photo opportunity.

Breathtaking Beaches Hidden Among The Punta Sur Cliffs

Another good reason to come down to Punta Sur using your rental golf cart, are the amazing hidden beaches here.

If you are in the mood to find some real desert island style beaches, then you will likely be delighted by the ones you can find here.

They are very secluded bordering on practically inaccessible.

However, if you look hard enough, there are some real treats for beach lovers here. Pristine sand and water that is oh so inviting.

And then, when you are heading home, you will be grateful for the relaxed journey your rental golf cart allows.

Check Out The Mayan Ruins Of Templo Ixchel From Which The Island Received Its Name

Isla Mujeres was a home to the Mayans. Templo Ixchel was built by the Mayans in honor of the goddess Ixchel, to whom the island was revered to be a sanctuary.

To the Mayan, Ixchel was worshipped as the goddess of the moon, fertility, and happiness. When the Spanish landed on the island they found a large number of carved statues of Ixchel.

It was from those that the island was named Isla Mujeres, or Island of Women.

Being on the island gives a very unique and easy opportunity to visit Mayan ruins. They are usually far less accessible. And with golf cart rentals being so easy to arrange, visiting them becomes even easier here.

So easy that regardless of where your vacation rental is on the island, you can get to Templo Ixchel within about 20 minutes by golf cart. Far easier than walking, which will allow you more energy to enjoy exploring with.

We highly recommend getting out to the Mayan Ruins during your vacation here.

The Well of Hacienda Mundaca

Around two and a half miles (4 Km) south of the main town on Isla Mujeres, lies the Well of Hacienda Mundaca. Very easy to get to when using golf cart rentals.

While a well may sound not so interesting, once you know the story behind it you may find it a compelling place to visit during your vacation.

The tale is one of romance. As with many tales indeed.

Fermín Antonio Mundaca de Marechaja was a reputed pirate and slave trader in the 19th century. And while on the isla he fell for a beautiful local lady who was known as La Trigueña, which translates as The Brunette.

As with many men who lose their minds to love, he set to win her heart and prove he was worthy of her.

With this in mind he built a lavish and luxurious villa (or mansion). It was to be resplendent with breathtaking gardens, beautiful archways and of course, the well that remains to this day.

But as with many tales of men who lose their minds to love on far flung islands. The tale ended not in the favor of poor Fermin. While he was still building the villa, the lady to whom it was in honor La Trigueña fell for another islander.  And married him instead of Fermin.

Fermin was broken hearted. The loss of his love was too much for Señor Mundaca to bear. And his broken heart was the death of him.

Within what is left of the grounds, are some walls, along with the foundations and a partially rebuilt house where the villa was to be. The large central pond, shady grounds with occasional rusting cannon and beautiful stone arch at the southern end, plus naturally the well, are what remain to be enjoyed today.

The ruins serve as a very pleasant place to stroll during your vacation.

Dolphin Discovery on Isla Mujeres Is A Wonderful Sea Life Experience To Check Out

Dolphin Discovery on Isla Mujeres is located on the Joyxee Island part of the isla.

So from almost wherever your vacation rental is on Isla Mujeres, you will be thankful for your golf cart rental to get you there. And it is worth going.

Dolphin Discovery offers an opportunity for you to get up very close with dolphins.

While dolphin tours heading out to sea are incredibly good. And offer a breathtaking chance to see dolphins in the wild. Watching them swim and jump as a pod. And have fun in their natural environment.

You get a much different experience, and real proximity to them when you visit Dolphin Discovery Isla Mujeres.

There is always an introductory briefing when you arrive. After all, most people have never met a dolphin before and there are certain things which are important to be aware of. You are going to be spending time with them so you and the dolphins can get use to each other.

Then the fun starts. The dolphins here are incredibly friendly.

They will greet you warmly. And may even give you a handshake, a hug or perhaps if you are lucky, a kiss.

This wonderful attraction, and it is within a part of the sea which is closed off and protected. This will give you the chance to see the acrobatics and intelligence of these amazing marine mammals, very close up.

You will also have the option to snorkel in a special area with a special acrylic wall that enables you to get close to manta rays and sharks. A very rare experience indeed. Yet all part of the fun of this special Mexican isla attraction.

This forms a wonderful activity to check out with family and/or friends.

Golf Cart Reliability And Service Is The Key To Ensuring Hassle Free Island Travel

When you are arranging your golf cart rental the key point is reliability.

Around the island prices are very similar between all the different rental places. What is different is the state of the golf carts themselves, and the service of the company you are renting from.

So while shopping around for price is likely going to be a waste of your time. Making sure you are going to get a reliable golf cart rental which is backed by quality service. Well that is going to be worth your time.

It is also the reason that we work hard to ensure our rental service is the best.

And that our golf carts are both well presented, and of course reliable.

Musa is made up of a variety of sculptures and statues. All sunken to the sea bed, and beginning to form a reef. What was once just the sandy bottom, has been brought alive through the addition of these intriguing statues.

And the marine life absolutely loves them.

Musa is now teaming with fish. And coral is already growing on various sculptures. The reef that Musa forms is really bringing a fresh abundance of sea life to the isla.

While many of the statues of Musa are of people, in different poses. There are also others including goddess statues, very befitting for the isla. Even a sculpture of a VW Beetle is there parked on the sandy sea floor.

Musa is a very unique underwater attraction. It is great for snorkeling around, and also great for diving if you wish. A great attraction to check out during your vacation.

Isla Mujeres Vacation Safety Note For Swimming And Snorkeling

The sea conditions vary greatly from one side of Isla Mujeres to the other.

So do be aware of this before you start swimming off, or snorkeling away, too far.

While the conditions on the western side, the side facing the mainland of Mexico, are relatively light. With gentle currents that are safe for most swimmers and snorkelers.

The Caribbean side, which faces east, has much stronger tides.

If you are going snorkeling or swimming on the eastern side of the island, in the Caribbean sea. It is wise to keep an eye on where you are and how quickly you are moving. It is all to easy, especially if you are snorkeling to get lost in the world below you, then realize too late how far you have gone.

So please, when swimming, snorkeling or enjoying time in or on the water in general. Be mindful of where you are and what is going on.

In doing so you will likely enjoy your Isla Mujeres vacation far more!

For those who have got experience in a kayak, and have been kayaking in numerous places. A really rich opportunity awaits you here.

If you are into sport fishing then you will love Isla Mujeres.

Or potentially, an amazing Marlin or Sailfish. If you are here in the warmer months. What could be better?

IslaMujeresVacations has access to some of the best deep sea fishing charters in the Mexican part of the Caribbean sea.

Whether you are coming here for the challenge of deep sea fishing in the Caribbean, and the fish unique to these waters. Or for the ultimate flavors and freshest fish out there.

There are some amazing catches waiting for you.

Wahoo – A Real Deep Sea Fishing Fighter For Those Who Love The Challenge

One of the real challenges that sport fishermen, and fisherwomen, come to the Caribbean and Mexico for is the Wahoo.

They are fast fish, able to get up to around 60 mph (96.5 km/h). They can also be very large, with some Wahoo being recorded at 8 ft 2 in (2.5 m) in length. Plus a whole load of solid fish muscle which can weigh in at 183 lbs (83 kg).

Granted those bigger sizes are rarer. But even an averaged size Wahoo can put up a challenging struggle for those seeking it.

Sailfish – A Stunning Fish To Reel In Though Always Catch And Release

Sailfish are one of the crown jewels when it comes to deep sea fishing in the Caribbean.

They are beautiful fish, and they come with a serious helping of challenge for those lucky enough to catch one. They are also protected. So when you do reel a Sailfish in, it is catch and release. Do be assured though, you will have a proper memento for your sport fishing activities to remember and mark what you did.

Kingfish – Or King Mackerel A Heavy Weight Deep Sea Fishing Prize

Most Kingfish are usually around the 30 lb (14 kg) mark. But they have been known to get up to 90 lb (40 kg) for really mature ones. They are also fast, similar in speed to the Wahoo, to which they are a distant relative.

The Kingfish provide some great sport for a deep sea fishing trip.

And when you do land one, then grilling the steaks you can get from it can provide some real evening pleasure. Especially as you relax by the barbecue in your rental home, that night.

Isla Mujeres Vacations Notes On Travel And Getting Here

Getting to Isla Mujeres is relatively simple. As a U.S. citizen, and for citizens of many other countries, you only need your passport to vacation on Isla Mujeres. Unless your period of travel within Mexico is going to be longer than 180 days that is, in which case you will need a tourist visa. So getting on a plane and jetting down to Cancun International, and then getting across to Isla Mujeres is very easy. And can be done last minute if you really wish to.

Just remember, if you are leaving it to the last minute, vacation rentals be it a house, hotel or a condo, could be a challenge. As could golf cart rentals for getting around the island.

You will most likely be coming by plane to Mexico’s Cancun International Airport which is Mexico’s second largest airport and handles around 16 million international passengers each year. This is a relatively modern airport, with a good selection of restaurants, cafes and other venues for those that need them. It is well catered to handling the large volume of passengers that travel through it each year.

Once at Cancun International, you have a 30 min ride to the ferry terminal which you can book your airport transportation here on our site as well. This makes it nice, to having the driver waiting at the airport terminal holding a sign with your name on it ready to pickup your bags and get you on your way.

If you book the round trip transfer then it makes it that much easier to not have to worry about getting a taxi and not getting ripped off.

Then there will be a short over water transfer to actually get to Isla Mujeres. A very nice large boat from Gran Puerto ferry terminal will take you over to the Island.  The main deck is air conditioned and the top deck is open air so you can see the water and the surroundings.  There is normally and musical band playing on the top deck as well.  Helps set the mood for a wonderful vacation.

Travel From Cancun To Isla Mujeres By Ferry

From Cancun International airport the journey by car to Gran Puerto ferry terminal takes around 30 minutes. Getting to the Island is then about a 15-minute ferry crossing, with scheduled crossings every half hour between 5:00 am and 9:00 pm. Between 9:00 pm and 5:00 am the ferry crosses once every hour.The journey from Cancun International airport to the Punta Sam ferry terminal takes about 32 minutes, depending of course on traffic. With the transfer to Isla Mujeres being an approximately 45 minute ferry ride depending on conditions. The Punta Sam ferry is the only option if you wish to take a car or other vehicle across to Isla Mujeres.

Travel Restrictions And Points To Be Aware Of Before You Travel

You will need a valid passport with at least one blank page in at the time of your trip.

Additional points to note are that there are currency restrictions for travel into and out of Mexico. You can carry a maximum of $10,000 into Mexico at your time of entry, and a maximum of $10,000 at your time of exit when completing your trip.

Currency And Paying For Things On Isla Mujeres During Your Vacation Here

It is worth bringing a good amount of cash with you when you come. Only you know what a good amount is, it depends on your vacation budget. However, do remember that you need to stay within the $10,000 limit for bringing cash into Mexico.

While many of the larger venues and top restaurants do take cards, the various street traders from whom you may wish to buy fresh fruit and vegetables from, for use in your vacation rental when cooking. Will need to be paid in cash for any purchases you wish to make.

So while cards can be used in some places, ensuring you have enough Pesos that you can carry around safely will make your stay here smoother.

Size Of The Isla

Size Of The Isla And The Terrain Around The Island

Isla Mujeres is a small island located off the coast of Cancun in Mexico and sits in the Caribbean sea.

  • Length: 7 km (4.3 mi)
  • Width: 650 m (0.404 mi)
  • Area: 4.55 km²
  • Population: 14,012 (2011)

The isla is relatively flat and rocky yet still very lush and green. Though even while being rocky it is still relatively easy to walk around. Though for ease of travel around the island most people on vacation use a golf cart rental for reasons of speed and comfort.

The Water And Staying Hydrated On Isla Mujeres

While using tap water to brush your teeth is OK, you should only be drinking bottled water.

If you are going to be cooking in your vacation rental property, then either get enough bottled water to wash the fruit, vegetables and other produce you will be cooking or preparing for meals and snacks.

Alternatively, you can use Microdyn. Many of the restaurants and eateries around the isla use Microdyn when they are preparing food. And you can purchase it in various places around the island.

Because Isla Mujeres is in the tropics you need to ensure you drink plenty of water every day.

While outside of the tropics many people are safe to consume 2 liters of water a day. In the tropics you should be aiming for around 4 liters a day or more, depending on your level of activity. Plus your consumption of alcohol which will dehydrate the body.

Dehydration can bring conditions such as heat stroke on faster, so drinking plenty of clean fresh water is essential to enjoying your vacation here.

As a further note, because you need to buy and carry bottled water in reasonable amounts back to your vacation rental, you will find using one of the available golf cart rentals we can arrange for you, very beneficial!

Isla Mujeres Electricity Supply And Planning For Your Electrical Devices Here

The electricity system in use on Isla Mujeres runs at 120 volts at 60 Hz.

Though while it is the same rating as the U.S.A. visitors from the states are advised to bring socket adaptors. While many vacation rentals and modern hotels do use the three prong socket arrangement. There are older places and parts of the isla where the older two flat prong arrangement is still used.

As such if you wish to ensure that your phone, touchpad or notebook PC remains powered up, bringing socket adaptors is highly recommended. And please be vigilant in regard to keeping your electrical devices safe and secure while you are here, much as you would at home.

Cell Phones And Calls From Mobile Devices While On Isla Mujeres

While your mobile device will likely work with the Mexican cell system, you will need to enable international roaming with your cell provider prior to arriving in Mexico.

Do note that every carrier and mobile service has different fees and tariffs for this. And those fees are likely to be far higher than at home. So do think carefully as to whether you will need an active cell service during your vacation.

Or whether you wish to just enjoy a time of peace and occasionally log into the internet world via a WiFi connection in one of the many places where that is possible.
