Mexico Beach Bars: Sunset Grill, Isla Mujeres

Tagged: , , , , , , ,

The Sunset Grill, located on Playa Norte, is one of my favorite beach bars on Isla Mujeres, an island just off the coast of Cancun. The restaurant section is located on a slightly elevated platform while the beach bar is set apart from the main serving/dining area, allowing patrons to saunter up to the beach bar and its swinging seats in their swimsuits without having to be dressed for dinner.

A Vertical Panorama

Tagged: , , , ,

One day as I was walking back to our room in the tower at the Dreams Resort and Spa in Cancun, I noticed an area sectioned off with tape and some ropes dangling from the building. When I looked up, I spotted four men working on the side of the building approximately 15 stories up. It was a windy day and I don’t know how many support ropes they had but no amount would have been sufficient for me. The idea of hanging from the side...
