Day
One:
After a light breakfast, we begin our first sail for Boca Iglesias. Around the
ocean side of Contoy
Island,
on the way, we’ll enjoy some fishing in hopes of securing a ‘catch of the day’.
Upon arriving at Boca Iglesias we’ll view the ruins of a 16th century Spanish
Colonial Church, wherein 1523 Francisco Montejo Jr. led an expedition ashore and
was attacked by the local Maya. To reach the ruins will be a day of adventure,
but prior to our arrival, we stop to snorkel in search of octopus and lobster.
After lunch on board, we start our journey to the Church.
To reach the abandoned site of Boca Iglesias we navigate through the mangroves
and walk through a dense jungle. During the hike, keep your eyes to the trees
which are home to the local spider monkeys. Following our excursion, we return
to the yacht for a relaxing dinner and cocktails.
Day
Two:
In the morning, we set sail to the island of Cayo Sucio (Dirty Cay). We break
up this two-hour sail with a stop at Coco Reef for some amazing snorkeling. Upon
arrival at Cayo Sucio, our crew will prepare lunch while you can explore in the
sea kayak or swim and snorkel nearby. Today, After lunch we invite you to relax
on the beach or snorkel just off the coast where you may encounter a wide
variety of sea life including turtles and manta rays. These waters are also a
popular location for whale shark viewing! One of the largest living fish
species, the whale shark is a gentle giant and poses no danger to snorkelers and
divers. They do offer a spectacular photo opportunity and can be a definite
highlight of the day’s activities
Day
Three:
We awake to the smell of fresh coffee and enjoy a delicious breakfast prior to
our sail to Isla
Mujeres,
‘The Island of Women’. The story of Isla Mujeres provides a colorful history
that explains how the island got its name. In 1517, when the Spanish expedition
led by Francisco Hernandez Cordova, landed here they discovered a stone temple
filled with female shaped Mayan idols. These idols represented the goddess
Ixchel, the goddess of fertility. Today, Isla Mujeres has earned the reputation
of being the region’s more laid back and relaxing island offering a quaint
little downtown with local shops, beautiful beaches, and restaurants.
During this 2 hour sail to Isla Mujeres, we stop for a quick dip and some
snorkeling before we arrive at Villa Vera Marina. Here we hop on a golf cart for
a tour of the island, stopping to take in the sights of downtown followed by
lunch back on the catamaran. After an afternoon of sailing around the island and
exploring the beaches, we head back to the marina and enjoy cocktails prior to
dinner ashore and exploring the entertainment options of downtown Isla Mujeres.
Day
Four:
After breakfast we set sail south navigating the bay waters and the coral reef
stopping on the way to enjoy the spectacular snorkeling in the waters of “El
Angel Reef” and the sunken shipwreck of “Triunfador”, then we sail back to
Cancun and our home base at Hacienda del Mar Marina where we say our goodbyes
and exchange emails to share our wonderful photos and memories of an
unforgettable vacation.
