Immersed in a shallow seawater lagoon just 25 minutes from Canc\u00fan and an hour and a half from Playa del Carmen, Isla Blanca is an excellent spot for water sports, especially kiteboarding.<\/p>\n<p>Isla Blanca is the perfect place to practice and learn kiteboarding because of the calm and shallow waters. If you have any difficulties or drift off, you can always walk back to the coast holding the kite in the air. Isla Blanca is located in a small peninsula with white sandy beaches and virgin forest, making it a secret, magical corner in the Mexican Caribbean that\u2019s perfect for escaping from the hustle and bustle in Cancun and Playa del Carmen.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks to its location, this large strip of sand is the ideal place for \u201cNorth Winds\u201d, which are on-shore, something that doesn\u2019t occur very often in the rest of the Riviera Maya.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The best season for kiteboarding in Isla Blanca<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The windy season in the Riviera Maya runs from November to June. The winds are consistent and vary from south to north. The so-called \u201cSeasons of the Norths\u201d is from November to April, when the winds are affected by the cold fronts coming from the United States and Canada. During this time of the year, the winds coming from the north are strong (10-30km\/h) and generally cold. We recommend using a neoprene suit of 4\/3mm or 5\/3mm, so you won\u2019t have to worry about the cold weather. As soon as the wind turns to the east and south-east, you won\u2019t need a neoprene suit any longer as the temperatures start to rise. From April to May the wind is always warmer, with an average speed of 10-25km\/h.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0How to get to Isla Blanca?<\/strong> Just follow these simple and easy directions.<\/p>\n<p><em>If you go by car from Cancun<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Take Bonampak Avenue going north, cross L\u00f3pez Portillo Avenue and keep going straight. Continue along the same avenue until it ends at the entrance to Playa Mujeres. Here, you\u2019ll see a roundabout, and you need to take the street that surrounds Playa Mujeres, the gardens and the golf course until you reach another roundabout, where you\u2019ll see a sign for the new road to Isla Blanca. Continue along this road until it turns into a dirt road and keep going for a few more kilometres until you pass the entrance to Pirata Morgan. You\u2019ll see the entrance to the lagoon on the left from there. If you want to go to the end of the lagoon to enjoy the best winds and water conditions, you should keep going along the dirt road until you have to park<a name=\"_GoBack\"><\/a>your car and then walk for a bit. It will be worth it, and the walk is very relaxing.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>If you go by public transport from Cancun<\/em><\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s a minivan service in from of the Canto pharmacy on the crossing between Tulum Avenue and L\u00f3pez Portillo Avenue that will take you to Isla Blanca. The vans also stop in front of the ferry that sails to Isla Mujeres. The van service only runs three times a day, so it\u2019s best to plan your times well!<\/p>\n<p><em>If you go from the airport\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The easiest way is to take an ADO bus from the airport to the centre of Cancun, and then take a taxi from there without any complications.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Isla Blanca beach is the best spot in the Riviera Maya to practice kiteboarding or take classes.
