Who TRANQUILO suits
TRANQUILO presents a welcoming setting for families or close-knit friends seeking an easy-going sailing holiday. Crafted by Fountaine Pajot, this 14 m catamaran accommodates eight guests across four cabins, with a crew of two attending to every detail. Life aboard naturally centres on the sea, where guests can take advantage of kayaks, paddleboards, and the swim platform, whilst air conditioning maintains a cool retreat after sunlit days on the water.
In East Yucatan, she matches the local charter fleet very comfortably. Her length is similar to comparable yachts in the area, and her 2017 build year keeps her in line with alternatives of similar vintage. She welcomes fewer guests overnight than competing options, ensuring an intimate atmosphere, while her weekly rate proves similar to surrounding choices for a private cruise along the coast.
Operating in Central America and East Yucatan throughout both summer and winter, she provides opportunities for adventure across multiple seasons. The best time for East Yucatan lies in the winter months from January through April, bringing pleasant sailing conditions. Those looking towards Central America will find the summer season from June to August equally appealing for exploring sheltered anchorages and enjoying warm tropical days.

Cruising East Yucatan: when to go and where to anchor
Best time
The charter season runs from November to July. Trade winds typically blow from the east and south-east. Winter months from December to February may experience 'Nortes', strong northerly wind systems that can affect coastal conditions. March to May offers stable weather and consistent winds. June and July are warmer with a higher probability of tropical storms. The period from December to April is the busiest for maritime traffic, while late spring remains relatively quiet.
Practical tips
- Puerto Cancún and the Isla Mujeres departures are about 20–30 minutes from Cancún airport; Puerto Aventuras is about 1 hour.
- Strict marine protected area regulations apply throughout the region; always verify current anchoring restrictions for specific reefs and seagrass beds before dropping anchor.
- Provisioning is most efficient in the larger centres near Cancún; remote southern locations have limited access to fresh supplies.
Anchorages to know
- Isla MujeresThe harbour provides sheltered mooring and anchorage options on the western side of the island.
- Puerto CancúnA modern marina facility located on the mainland providing access to the northern cruising grounds.
- Isla ContoyThis protected island located north of Isla Mujeres requires specific permits for entry and anchoring.
- Puerto AventurasA gated marina complex on the mainland offering secure berthing and access to southern coastal waters.
