How To Get There

The Gran Puerto Cancun (Ultramar) ferry dock is located in Puerto Juarez, a few minutes from downtown Cancun or approximately 30 minutes from Cancun airport. The boats leave every half hour from 5:00 am until 9:30 pm and every hour after that. The crossing takes about 20 minutes. You can book your ticket when you arrive at the port, or prebook here.

We do not recommend taking your car to Isla Mujeres, rather renting a golf cart when you get over! This can be a little pricey, ranging from $60-$80 per day (worth it though!)
