Fodor's Expert Review Museum Capitán Dulché

Isla Mujeres History Museum

Editor's Note: This location is reported to be under new ownership and therefore this review may contain inaccuracies.

The island's only museum gives a glimpse into the life of famed ocean explorers Ramón Bravo, Jacques Cousteau, and Captain Ernesto Dulché Escalante, who founded the 5th Naval Region of Isla Mujeres. A collection of photographs, model ships, anchors, buoys, lanterns, and other maritime tools also showcases Isla’s seafaring history. The museum is part of a beach club, so you can reminisce about the past before enjoying the present with a cold beer under the shade of a palapa.
