Mexico Isla Mujeres (61st island)

Contoy Island

lunch time

The next day there was less wind than yesterday and the sea seemed calm at first glance. It is not possible to exchange Japanese yen at the bank. After all, the payment is cashing the dollar, and now it's time to leave. The bait for the trolling is a halfbeak. Wait 10 minutes. Comfortable sound. Roll up when the fish stops pulling. Get 5kg Barracuda, then 8kg.

Catch an 8kg barracuda

I came to the pier to see the touring boat for a walk after a meal. When I turned to the voice I called from behind, it was a man I met in the daytime. It's strange and we meet again. When I was talking, it suddenly started to rain, and it got stronger and stronger, and I took shelter in the car. A wife and a child are in the car. The rain is unlikely to stop, so drive to the hotel.

There were many other tour companies, but for some reason I was attracted to the old man. This is also an edge. Supper is a recommended store for Japanese information magazines. Classic tacos and seafood ceviche at a dimly lit store near the pier. We are the only two customers. Where are other tourists eating? Anyway, it's a shop with no customers. The taste is not good. A lonely dinner time for only two people.

Half-pay the deposit now. "Why half price?" "Then with a card" 10% up for cards. I didn't feel like going, "Well, stop it." While talking about something at one store that was filled with information gathering sign the reservation application to come back tomorrow I went back to the hotel.

Our charter ship is free to act. "Let's go home early?" The waves hit the bottom of the ship bigger than I expected. The big bounce echoes to the waist. It's a good way to go and a good return is difficult. Still, I got 2 for the return fee. Returning to the port while suffering from splashes, welcoming birds flying in the sky. Contoy Island is an Island recommended by Tetsujin.

The Island is a frigatebird paradise

It's a masterpiece that seems to be played by humans. There are no colorful fish in the sea, but the view from the ship is interesting. The "Barracuda" I caught earlier is on the barbecue net. The other groups seemed to be quite good with the big sea bream and fat caught by diving. For lunch, add avocado and condiments to the corn-baked skin and the baked fish to make a handmade taco.

How long does it take to reach Isla Contoy? "40 minutes" Let's land first. The Island shadow was faintly visible. Other ships arrive first on the uninhabited Island. The tour departs at 9 o'clock. Fed "rays", fish are so attached to humans that they swim diagonally in shallow water

Find a contoy tour on the Island and negotiate a charter ship ($ 350) You can do all of trolling, barbecue, snorkeling, and bird watching. Departure time is also free and you can spend a carefree time here. The weather on the next day looks bad, so I decided to leave one day before leaving at 11:00 am.

Head to Contoy Island

The taste of Mexican beer on the beach is refreshing. Frigatebirds and pelicans fly in the sky. Lunch time in the wilderness. The tranquility of the Island and its excellent location. The shallow sea is a gradation of blue and emerald. The time of bliss is passing.
