Holbox, meaning “black hole” in Maya, was founded in 1873 by the descendents of the pirates who took refuge there. The island is surrounded by beautiful landscapes, nature and an environment of relaxation. The island invites you to rest and enjoy its tropical climate, crystal clear waters, marine life and white beaches.
