This article has the same information as the previous one about cleaning and maintaining the sports fields, which are closed, as part of the "Isla Clean & Healthy" program, noting that guards have been implemented from 7a to 8p to avoid agglomerations. He head of the municipal Sports department, Ruben Perez Martin, said the maintenance was done in coordination with other departments and volunteers, so that they remain in optimal condition and are ready when it's time to open them. He noted the work is being done with measures of healthy distancing and personal protection. He said the social media program "Physical Activation at Home" is coming soon, for the whole family.

On Saturday, the Navy conducted two separate rescues of boats that were adrift LINK
The first rescue was of the small IMEMSA-type fishing boat "JOMAN" with four crew members aboard who had left Cancun on July 8th and not returned. The Navy responded to the emergency call by dispatching an MLB-type vessel of the Naval Search & Rescue unit of Isla Mujeres, as well as a Peruader-type airplane. The boat was located 19 nautical miles (35km) northeast of Isla Contoy, suffering from engine failure. The crew was provided with food and water, and taken to the Naval pier in Isla Mujeres.
The second rescue was a small Seo Rider fishing vessel "A LA DERIVA" with five male Mexican crew members aboard, which also suffered engine failure and was located 7 nautical miles (13km) southeast of Isla Mujeres. It was located and towed by a Defender-type vessel of the Naval Search and Rescue Unit of Isla Mujeres.
When they reached safe harbor, the crews of each boat were given medical evaluations by Naval Health personnel, using all appropriate sanitary measures, and were found to be in good health.

Turtles continue nesting in July. They can be observed mating offshore from Punta Sur
during this
month, and they nest along the eastern beaches. Tortugranja staff and
volunteers gather the eggs and incubate them in the sand in a pen
outside the facility. Three species nest annually in Isla Mujeres, Greens, Loggerheads,
and Hawksbills, and very rarely, a Leatherback will attempt to nest,
but generally the sand isn't sufficiently deep.Swimming with the whale sharks takes place in July, which ends annually in mid-September. They congregate and feed on a 'buffet' of plankton and fish eggs from a type of tuna. Rays are also attracted to the feeding areas. Photo by Tony Garcia
