How do I get there?

Take a Taxi: Take a taxi to one of the ferry piers that has boats to Isla Mujeres. The most convenient one is to take a ferry from the Embarcadero Playa Linda. You can catch a ferry directly to Garrafon. See ferry schedules and map of Cancun area.

 

Take a Bus. Along the hotel zone, the public bus is about 65 cents to ride and passes by the hotels almost very 2 minutes. Any of the buses will take you to the Embarcadero Playa Linda pier or the Club Naudio pier but if going to catch a ferry near downtown Cancun, take the R8 which will take you to Punta Sam or Puerto Juarez. It's a good idea to ask the bus driver to let you know when you get to the bus terminal and sit near the front. You can catch a ferry directly to Garrafon. See ferry schedules and map of Cancun area.
