Holbox, Mexico









Holbox is pronounced "Holbosh"...
Here there are no cars, no cell phones, no internet, no wake up calls and i hope... no gyms...
Only white beaches for miles and miles. Whale sharks you can dive with and Isla Parajos (Island of the birds), a bird sanctuary. I feel in love with this island 2 years ago. My first find in secluded islands. It is easily accessible from Cancun. A choice or planes, buses or cars are available from the Cancun airport. Once at port, a ferry can take you accross the water to the island of Holbox. But from what i've heard, many local fisherman are happy to take you accross at a low cost. What i like about the bird sanctuaries is that they are all equiped with viewing platforms, well above ground on stilts, so the grounds are not disturbed by humans.




















Here are a few places you can stay at on Holbox...
