Playa Norte (Isla Mujeres)
21° 15.6′ N · 86° 45.1′ W
The powdery white beach wrapped around the island's northern tip, with waist-deep turquoise water stretching far offshore and the best sunsets on the Mexican Caribbean coast.
Practical
Coordinate from the OpenStreetMap beach polygon centroid for Playa Norte. Blue Flag certified since 2018 (Spanish Wikipedia). Walkable from the downtown dinghy landings; beach bars include Buho's (snacks until 5:00 pm) and Chi-Chi & Charlie's (Wikivoyage). Shallow water makes it ideal for kids and a calm swim; it is exposed in a norte. Recovered quickly after Hurricane Wilma (2005).
