Transport
Holpoxin saari oli mielettömän hieno. Mutta petyimme siihen, että kun kuudelta aamulla lähdimme retkelle, seuraavaksi saatiin jotain suuhunpantavaa 13.00. Pois lukien yks muffinssi kahdeksalta aamulla. Se olisi tietysti ok jos tästä olisi mainittu jossain kohtaa varausta. Olisimme ottaneet jotain syötävää mukaan. Myös suosittelen miettimään useamman paikan, jossa ihmiset pääsevät vessaan. Haluan todella mennä Holboxiin uudestaan, koska tällä retkellä itse paikkaan tutustuminen jäi 40 minuuttiin
Holbox Island offers 36km of pristine white beaches washed by emerald-green seas. On this exclusive excursion, you'll discover spots like Isla Pasion on a private boat and enjoy lunch at a five-star eco-resort. There's also a golf buggy tour of the island to look forward to. Ariel, one of our local guides on this tour, says, ‘Holbox is a habitat for more than 300 endemic and migratory species. It's also something of a playground, with activities such as speedboats and beach buggies.'
Board your boat at Chiquila – piloted by a local fisherman – and be whisked off on a two-hour coastal tour. Every other company uses the local ferry. Your guide will point out places known for their wildlife and explain what efforts are being made to preserve this habitat. And if you're doing the tour between June and September, you may be lucky enough to catch sight of the island's flamboyant flamingos. Plus, you'll discover the beauty of the secluded beaches of Isla Pasion and Punta Mosquito, before heading to the eco-resort for lunch followed by downtime on the sunloungers.
Once your batteries are recharged, you'll hop into a golf buggy for some fun exploring the surrounding area. To round off your visit to the island, we'll make our way to Holbox's laidback main square for some free time – it's a great opportunity to pick up some souvenirs or sample local food. You'll then return by ferry to Chiquila and on to Cancun.
