This incredible tropical oasis is known for its spectacular crystalline waters and being a protected ecological zone. Today you will be able to learn everything about it, so pack your suitcase and join us on this magical trip to one of the most beautiful places on earth.

How To Get To Garrafon Park?

There are several ways to get to this ecological park. Everything will depend on your location. So pay attention and take note:

For example, if you are in the hotel zone or downtown Cancun, you can take a ferry from the Gran Puerto pier to Isla Mujeres. Don’t worry about the time because the ferries leave frequently, and the distance is short (between 20 and 30 minutes approximately). Once you disembark on Isla Mujeres, you can take a taxi or rent a golf cart to reach Garrafon Park in around 20 minutes.

Now if you are in the Riviera Maya, you can take a bus or a taxi to the port of Playa del Carmen, and from there, take a ferry to Isla Mujeres. Once in Isla Mujeres, you can take a taxi or a golf cart to get to Garrafon Park. Great!

If you go alone or with friends, you can have a different experience and rent a bicycle to get to the park, but we recommend doing this only if you come with your family and small children.

Whether you like to swim with Dolphins, kayak, snorkel, fly with zip lines or relax on the beach while sipping a piña colada in Garrafon Park, there is fun for all tastes and budgets.

And if that weren’t enough, this incredible ecological park also has green areas, gardens, restaurants, and a souvenir shop. In addition, the park is located in a protected reef area, which means that the conservation of the marine ecosystem is promoted, and the human impact in the area is minimized.
