Casa Avalon on Isla Mujeres is your home away from home amidst turquoise waters and tranquility. Spring sees some of the world's best sport fishing and the annual sailing regatta from Saint Petersburg, Florida. The year round fiesta atmosphere is always friendly and relaxed, culminating in the Caribbean Music Festival each fall. Bake on the beach with a good book or take an all day boat ride to Isla Contoy Bird Sanctuary or to swim with the whale sharks . Within 500 metres of Casa Avalon, swim with Dolphins or see Turtles hatch and head for the open sea. Snorkel or scuba dive with a rainbow of tropical fish or visit the Maya temple of the goddess Ixchel at Garrafon. A 20 minute ferry ride opens a world of: golf, water parks, Xcaret nature park, cenotes, tours to the Maya castle on the Caribbean at Tulum and the world famous Pyramids of Chichen Itza, now one of the Seven Wonders of the Modern World . You can't do it all in a single visit, you'll want to come back for more!
