Big news for locals and visitors alike—Puerto Morelos is getting a major digital upgrade!
Thanks to a new initiative, free public Wi-Fi is rolling out across the town's bustling tourist zone, making it easier than ever to stay connected while you explore paradise.
The project, spearheaded by Gignet, kicked off in July 2025 with the installation of modern Wi-Fi modules in central Puerto Morelos.
These modules are strategically placed in high-traffic areas, including the main square, the iconic lighthouse, and along the waterfront.
The mayor of Puerto Morelos, Blanca Merari Tziu Muñoz, is very excited about this. She says that having free Wi-Fi will make our town even better for everyone.
It's part of a plan to make Puerto Morelos a "smart city," which means using technology to improve life for its citizens.
Whether you're snapping photos of the turquoise sea, video calling family back home, or just checking your favorite social feeds, you'll have reliable, high-speed internet at your fingertips—no more frantic searches for a café with decent signal!
Local business owners are celebrating the move, seeing it as a boost for tourism and the local economy. "It's a win-win," said one shop owner. "Visitors can share their experiences in real time, and we get more eyes on our beautiful town."
The new network is also expected to help digital nomads and remote workers who are increasingly choosing Puerto Morelos as their base.
Security and privacy are top priorities, with Gignet assuring users that the system is designed to protect personal data and provide a safe browsing experience.
The service is free for everyone—no complicated sign-ups or hidden fees.
So, next time you're strolling the malecĂłn or lounging in the plaza, go ahead and upload that sunset selfie or check your email without worry.
Puerto Morelos is officially on the digital map, and staying connected has never been easier—or more scenic!
