Museum of Underwater Art (MUSA): Urban Marine Life Shelter
Around Isla Mujeres, on a reef known as Manchones, due to its enormous diversity of marine species of different sizes, colors and shapes, there are some well-kept secrets. So guarded that they are just over 10 meters deep.
While the surrounding natural reefs go to great lengths to protect marine life, the Museum of Underwater Art (MUSA) in offers a gallery of more than 400 concrete sculptures, a haven for species such as urchins, angelfish, lobsters and turtles.
Thanks to the rapid growth of corals on the surface of these permanently submerged sculptures, an artificial reef is born that seeks to show the world the coexistence between environmental sciences and the works of artists such as Jason deCaires Taylor, Karen Salinas, Rodrigo Quiñones and Salvador Quiroz
What to do at the Isla Mujeres Underwater Art Museum?
Sail aboard a glass-bottom boat to see turtles, parakeets, angelfish and the beautiful elkhorn coral, as well as sculptures such as the icebreaker and El Orador. This activity is ideal for all ages, as it is very practical for those who do not prefer to get in contact with water.
In the Manchones underwater gallery, sculptures like Silent Evolution allow certified divers and future divers to enjoy a face-to-face experience.
However, another great advantage offered by this underwater museum near Cancun is that its sculptures can also be appreciated from the surface with a snorkel, thanks to the clarity offered by the turquoise waters of the Caribbean Sea.
