    I'd like to go to the Women's Bead Company at the Isla de Mujeres; is there time for that on the cruise? If not is there a boat/tour you recommend? Thanks

    not sure if there is enough time with the Boobs Cruise but there is a ferry a short walk from the resort that can take you over there and you can spend all the time you need.and rent a golf cart and tour the island

    We love Isla.......and hear that the Boobs Cruise doesn't stop there very often anymore. We'll do Boobs Cruise but love a time to do silver shopping on Isla!

    Like turk870 has said there is a public ferry that goes to the island you can get there by heading up the beach where the pirate dinner cruise boats are kept or from the front of the hotel as well walking along the boulevard. We did that on one of the rare overcast days we had and had a great time. it was fairly cheap as well I want to say it was under $30 US return for the two of us but rates may have changed. For sure rent the golf cart you can explore the island and again it was cheap to rent them, we toured the island had some lunch and went shopping and had a great time doing it as well. Last time we were at TTR there was another couple on their first trip and they asked about going over to the island and we told them the same thing. We went on the boob cruise as well ( certainly give it a try), we had a short stay on the island. We had lunch and games and had a short period of "free time" an hour or so not that long to explore things. Think Steve may have changed that, as it's a little hard to corral all the party people back on the boat when they're spread out all over.

    I'm not sure where the Womens Bead Company is on the island but there is probably not enough time to visit if on our Boobs Cruise. If we stop at all at the downtown Isla Mujeres area (we dont always) it is generally only for 45 minutes.

    Ferry is the best option to spend any decent amount of time at downtown - only $15pp.

    The regular cruise that Valley Girl mentioned they do dump you, oops I mean drop you, at downtown Isla for about 2 hours. The $54 price mentioned though doesn't include the $8 reef tax (compulsory) that you dont find out about until check in, nor the bracelet for drinks at lunchtime which is an extra $10 (optional), and those prices will have gone up for 2014.

    Both of those extra fees are included in the Boobs Cruise price plus DJ, sound system, 2 great Ents staff, guaranteed no kids, guaranteed top of the range boat, prizes, games, skinny dipping and the best boat crew :)

    Anyone going to Temp HAS TO make some time to take the ferry to Isla Mujeres. Absolutely beautiful place to go to and can't wait to go again.
