Cancun

Good Times & Good Will

The Island Time Music and Fishing Fest is an annual music festival and fishing tournament held on the beautiful Isla Mujeres island. The event has been running for the past ten years. This year, the event will be held from February 24 – 27.

During this four-day festival, music lovers will enjoy daily performances in several venues across the island and have the opportunity to meet talented songwriters and performers and fishing enthusiasts will compete for top honors in pursuit of migrating sailfish in an organized fishing tournament.

The event will finish with an awards banquet and a feast for all attendees including fresh-caught fish.

The best part about this tournament is that all proceeds are donated to the “Little Yellow Schoolhouse” which supports local special needs children and children with disabilities, so that they can receive free schooling in an environment where they can thrive.

Thanks to the Island Time Music and Fishing Festivals’ previous success, the school now has over 50 students and six classrooms.

Now sun lovers vacationing in Puerto Vallarta can get a dose of the cold too gliding on skates over ice in the most unlikely location!

IcelandBeach PV will be open daily from 9:00 am until 8:00 pm. The best part about it staying open so late, is that skaters can get a view of the sunset while skating on ice!

Skating Prices are 130 pesos per hour or 80 pesos per half hour including the rental of ice and/or hockey skates. (Prices are subject to change.)
