Between Cancun and Isla Mujeres, Quintana Roo Mexico has a variety of activities and lifestyles to offer. Those looking for the party or “spring break” vibe would likely prefer Cancun, since it’s the unofficial fiesta capital of Mexico, with loud music and plenty of alcohol within reach.
Alternatively, Isla Mujeres offers a more idyllic setting, quieter and better for relaxing. Isla Mujeres beaches and wildlife easily outweigh that on the mainland, and the Mayan temples are great for visitors that want more of a cultural experience.
