Holbox island is located north west of Cancun, in what was the navigation route of the ancient mayas, the island has miles of unspoiled white sand beaches, the fishermen's village offers you friendly people, excelent sea food and mexican restorants, and shops. Inside the village and in the beach you will find our small boutique hotel, Casa Maya Holbox.
The island invites you to rest and enjoy its tropical climate, crystal clear waters, marine life and white beaches.
WHALE SHARKS
The yearly visit of families of WHALE SHARKS, enormous gentle giants, the largest fish alive that come together in the nearby waters where the CARIBEEAN CURRENT, that flows north on our CARIBEEAN coast, mixes with the waters of the GULF OF MEXICO on the summer months make HOLBOX ISLAND a must for visitors.
As this giant fish eat on the surface, gulping plankton, you can swim beside them and even touch their skins. It can be the adventure of a life time, and we are lucky that these protected giants come every year to our waters.
If not a serious mariner, then ride a horse on the beach and rent a golf cart and do your own exploration on island. SHELL HUNTING and PHOTOGRAPHY are also some of the many things to do while you vacation with us.
The best sport in HOLBOX is of course resting, relaxing and reading in our coconut gardens.
Do bring your CAMERAS AND BINOCULARS because you will be able to take many scenes in these primitive and natural seascapes.
