What Awaits in Holbox: Secrets for the Savvy Traveler

Holbox has become more popular in recent years, but it still hides magical moments that most visitors miss. Here are a few pro tips:

Bioluminescence is seasonal: If you time your visit between June and September, you may catch glowing plankton at night. Ask your Wayak driver what dates are best.
The hammocks in the sea are iconic, but go early in the morning to get them all to yourself.
Mosquitoes are real: Pack eco-friendly repellent and long sleeves.
