Isla Mujeres was attempting many solutions to the beach erosion problem. On the rocky Atlantic side they used layers of rock gabions to reinforce the limestone on that side. On the beach side they were pumping sand onto the shore and using sandbags and groynes in an attempt to reclaim sand.
People seemed pretty optimistic - check out the model condo on the Atlantic side shown above! This building is being rebuilt after the last hurricane.
