The Mono Azul is a Puerto Morelos icon.

  1. Bullet  The “Blue Monkey” was the name of our family’s 150-year old pub, now demolished, in St. Budeaux, Plymouth, England.  Originally know as the St. Budeaux Inn, in the 1920’s it was renamed the Blue Monkey, after the mascot of a Royal Marine Regiment that was stationed nearby in the 19th century.  Those tight jackets worn by British seamen were called monkey suits.  Another theory is  the men who fired the cannons onboard were called “powder monkeys”   and supposedly turned blue from the gunpowder.  Click here to see photos of the old inn as well as our new Blue Monkey lodgings.
