Explore Holbox's virgin beaches and islets

• Visit Isla Pasión by boat
• Relax at Yalahau freshwater spring

The experience

The boat leaves Holbox and reaches Isla Pasión in 10 minutes: a small island known as a lovers' corner, with calm water and tropical surroundings far from town. You swim in virgin beaches and spend time in the sun and sea before heading to Yalahau, a freshwater spring where the water is still and cool, a break from the salt. Then comes Punta Mosquitos, the third stop on the route, where you walk the untouched beaches of Holbox itself.

A lifejacket is provided for each person, and entrance fees to the islands are already paid. The guide speaks English or Spanish and stays with the group throughout. The whole tour runs three hours, which means you're back by early afternoon if you start in the morning, leaving the rest of your day free in Holbox or on the mainland.
