The methodology employed in the study is qualitative and exploratory in scope. To achieve this, interviews were conducted with several inhabitants of the island, along with a participatory workshop through a digital platform. The main finding of the research reveals that cultural identity in Isla Mujeres is synthesized in the concept of ‘being an islander’. This idea is supported by the imagined social structure made up of family groups identified as founders, developers, and other islanders or non-islanders. The notion of ‘being an islander’ shows the contributions of these three family groups in the construction of urban imaginaries and preserving the historical memory of the Isla Mujeres community. El objetivo de esta comunicación es distinguir los componentes constitutivos de la identidad cultural presentes en los procesos de apropiación del espacio vivido, los imaginarios urbanos y la memoria histórica de los habitantes de Isla Mujeres, en Quintana Roo, México. La metodología empleada en el estudio es de tipo cualitativa y de alcance exploratorio. Para ello se llevaron a cabo entrevistas con varios habitantes de la isla, además de un taller participativo realizado a través de una plataforma digital. El hallazgo principal de la investigación revela que la identidad cultural en Isla Mujeres está sintetizada en la idea de ser isleño. Esta idea está sustentada en la estructura social imaginada que integran los grupos familiares identificados como fundadores, forjadores y los otros isleños o no isleños. La concepción de ser isleño muestra los aportes de esos tres grupos familiares en la construcción de los imaginarios urbanos y en la preservación de la memoria histórica de la comunidad de Isla Mujeres.
