The beaches of Isla Mujeres continue to attract hundreds of visitors
For its turquoise blue waters, its white area
beaches and awards certifying them as quality spaces, the beaches of
Isla Mujeres continue to attract hundreds of visitors to this unique destination in the Mexican Caribbean.
Although Isla
Mujeres has various tourist attractions, Playa Centro and North Beach
are two of the most sought after beaches to spend an afternoon of
sunshine and sand, and staff of ZOFEMAT (Federal Zone agency), are responsible for keeping them in optimal conditions
conditions for the enjoyment of locals and visitors.
Kerem Pinto
Aguilar, director of ZOFEMAT, explained that for the current
administration has been committed to keep them always clean, so
early hours the crews of workers of the unit take care of the raking and
sowing of sand, as well as lifting the sargazo that recites on the
shores of destiny.
She said that from January until now, Isla's ZOFEMAT staff have removed 536 tons of sargasso during the season when it arrives, which has been a smaller amount compared to other years and other destinations.
′′We have been fortunate in Isla Mujeres, because although sargasso has washed up on our shores, it has been in minimum quantities and we
have been able to remove it promptly and thoroughly, maintaining quality spaces
for the enjoyment of our island families and visitors," said the official.
On World Tourism Day (Sept. 27) we invite you to visit the beaches of Isla Mujeres 🏝, enjoy the sun ☀️ and crystal clear waters

volunteers gather the eggs and incubate them in the sand in a pen
