Isla Mujeres, Hacienda Mundaca - Slaves, Pirates and Unrequited Love
The story of pirate and slave trader Fermin Mundaca is a fascinating one. A Spaniard of educated background, Fermin decided to try his hand at slave trading, first bringing slaves from the West Coast of Africa to Cuba and Antilla to work the sugarcane plantations and mines, and then Mayan captives from the Yucatan peninsula. In 1858 the British Navy started cracking down on the slave trade and Fermin decided it was time to retire. He purchased near half of Isla Mujeres, the Island of the Women. So called because of female idols found at Mayan Ruins.
Fermin fell in love with a local Mayan women, Prisca Gomez. Unfortunately Prisca was not in love with Fermin, who was 37 years her senior. He believed he could win her love by building the grandest Hacienda and gardens, stone archways and seats, sundials and flower beds. He dedicated all to Prisca, who he called 'the brunette' ( La Triguena) Fermin destroyed local Mayan Temples to build his monuments of love, and used Mayan Slaves to do the work. You can understand that as a Mayan, Prisca was not impressed with his grand gestures. She married a local Mayan man and Fermin was left heart broken. He became a recluse, letting all his workers go, having only two male servants. He let the gardens and the animals turn to ruin. He bought a grave site in the local cemetery and dated the tombstone 1877. He wrote a message on his tomb, As you are now, I was. As I am, you will be Fermin could not stand seeing the growing family of his unrequited love, so left for Merida in 1880, where he died only weeks later.

Isla Mujeres Mexico Jan 2018
Isla Mujeres is an amazing place to visit, partly because it is small (4 miles long) and partly because it’s easy to move at a slower pace given it’s true island vibe. It is a destination for people who love Mexico, the beach and who want to truly relax and enjoy simple pleasures.
Isla Mujeres, “Island of Women” is a 20 minute ferry ride from Cancun. It is surrounded by some of the most beautiful beaches in the world and thankfully has not become over saturated with mega resorts and a raging nightlife scene like it’s mainland neighbor.
Rent a golf cart and drive around the island.
Things to do:
Isla's Beaches ~ Playa Norte
MUSA Underwater Sculpture Museum

AMAZING ISLA MUJERES MEXICO, GORGEOUS MEXICAN BEACHES, MEXICO HOLIDAY
AMAZING ISLA MUJERES MEXICO, GORGEOUS MEXICAN BEACHES, MEXICO HOLIDAY, Isla Mujeres (Spanish pronunciation: ['izla mu'xeɾes], Spanish for Women Island) is an island in the Gulf of Mexico, about 13 kilometres (8.1 mi) off the Yucatán Peninsula coast. The island is approximately 7 kilometres (4.3 mi) long and 650 metres (2,130 ft) wide. To the east is the Caribbean Sea with a strong surf and rocky coast, and to the west the skyline of Cancún can be seen across the clear waters. In the 2010 census, the namesake town on the island had a population of 12,642 inhabitants.[1]
The island is part of the Isla Mujeres Municipality in the State of Quintana Roo, Mexico. In Pre-Columbian times the island was sacred to the Maya goddess of childbirth and medicine, Ixchel. When the Spanish arrived in the 16th century they named it Isla Mujeres because of the many images of goddesses. The first information available about Isla Mujeres is from the period between 564–1516 AD, when it was part of the Maya province called Ekab. There were 4 Maya provinces in what is today the State of Quintana Roo. The Maya also exploited the salt that the island produced in the salinas (small interior lagoons). The salt was used not only for the preservation of food and medicine but also as a generally accepted currency for commerce of goods along the whole Maya region. The Maya goddess Ixchel had a temple in what is today the Hacienda Mundaca (Mundaca's Plantation House).
A small Maya temple was once located on the southern tip of the island. However, in 1988, Hurricane Gilbert caused extensive damage, leaving most of the foundation but only a very small portion of the temple.
Since the 1970s, along with nearby Cancún, there has been substantial tourist development in Isla Mujeres.
Transportation
Transportation on the island of Isla Mujeres consists primarily of taxis or golf carts and moped scooters. As of 2005 there were 121 taxis, 500 golf carts, and 1500 moped scooters.[2] There is also a bus service that runs from the downtown to the different neighborhoods, called colonias in Spanish (where most locals live). Unfortunately the island used to be served by Isla Mujeres National Airport but the airport and landing strip is no longer used for more than a place to get exercise, as many locals, military personnel, and/or tourist can be seen jogging up and down the runway at various times throughout the day.
Ferry service to the mainland
There are two main ferry boat companies (UltraMar and Marinesa) that run to the island from Puerto Juárez, Cancun, or Gran Puerto on the mainland. There are also party boats of all sorts that make day trips to Isla Mujeres. The island is popular with day trippers, but activity quiets down in the evening after the tour groups leave.
Tourism

Playa Norte, Isla Mujeres
There are numerous places to eat fresh seafood cooked with local and traditional recipes, and other restaurants offer Mexican, Yucatecan, Italian, Caribbean, Mediterranean, Israeli, French, Thai, Cuban, and Maya cuisine. Hotel prices vary from cheap to very expensive at the resorts on the southwest end such as Hotel Villa Rolandi, and Playa Norte.[citation needed] In the north is El Centro (downtown), whose central axis, Hidalgo Street, is the main dining and entertainment area. Also located on the north end is a famous beach called Playa Norte, which has recovered quickly since Hurricane Wilma hit the area in 2005. Besides these attractions, swimming with dolphins can also be experienced at the Island.
The island of Isla Mujeres is located close to one of many coral reefs such as the one located in Garrafon Park, which is an area popular for its snorkeling and scuba diving. The Cancún Underwater Museum, created by English sculptor Jason deCaires Taylor, is located off the western coast of Isla Mujeres.[3] Isla Mujeres is also home to a population of sea turtles. Because of the recent endangerment of sea turtles in the area, a facility was set up on the southern end of the island for their rehabilitation and breeding. This facility is open to the public.[4]
The island's relative proximity to Cuba has made it one of the favorite stepping stones of Cubans trying to reach the United States in recent years
