Isla Mujeres: Playa Norte cleared of sargassum
Playa Norte in Isla Mujeres has been cleared of sargassum following intensive cleaning efforts. The operation was a collaborative effort involving the Isla Mujeres municipal government through the Direction of the Maritime Terrestrial Federal Zone (ZOFEMAT), local fishermen, concessionaires, volunteers, and personnel from the Secretariat of the Navy.
During the two-day cleanup operation, approximately 240 tons of the macroalgae were removed to address an atypical accumulation on the beach. Authorities stated that ZOFEMAT continues to monitor beach conditions using aerial patrols and technological tools to prepare for any future arrivals of sargassum.
