This is an unusual place that is worth a visit.  More than 440 sculptures are immersed in the Manchones exhibition area near the south of Isla Mujeres and 17 sculptures in the Nizuc area south of Cancun.  All of them are located in the Costa Occidental National Park of Isla Mujeres, Punta Cancun, and Punta Nizuc, to reduce the number of visitors who have access to the natural reefs of the marine park.  The founders of MUSA are the director of the marine park, Dr. Jaime Gonzalez Cano, the British sculptor Jason deCaires Taylor and its founding president, Roberto Diaz Abraham.  The MUSA was inaugurated on November 27, 2010.
