An Argentine tourist apparently died of a heart attack on the Isla de Mujeres, in the Mexican Caribbean. The local police reported this Sunday.
The 77-year-old man, identified as José N., was on a tourist tour aboard the “Obi Kue 3” boat with a group of tourists on Saturday when he felt unwell.
How the Argentine tourist died on the Isla de Mujeres
The municipal police said that the Argentine tourist had gone down with a guide to walk in the shallow waters of the island and vanished.
The guide, helped by other tourists, took him to the coast. There, lifeguards and paramedics from the Red Cross performed cardiopulmonary resuscitation, but the man no longer had vital signs.
The doctors said that it appeared that he had suffered a heart attack.
Isla Mujeres is located in the Caribbean Sea, very close to the Yucatan Peninsula, in southeastern Mexico. It is one of the eleven municipalities in the state of Quintana Roo, one of the most touristic in the country.
