1. The mesmerizing Isla Mujeres

You should definitely get up early to witness one of the most radiant sunrises you’ll ever witness, too. The sun will keep you company throughout the day as well, and you can cool off in the turquoise waters. After you’ve tired yourself out swimming, regain your energy with some local specialities, like shrimp in a shell. After all, eating local is one of the best ways to stay eco-friendly while travelling.
