We’ll depart from your meeting point or hotel at the scheduled time on your ticket, heading toward the port of Chiquilá. From there, a short ferry ride across turquoise waters will take you to the paradise island of Holbox—where time slows down and every corner feels like a hidden postcard.
As you arrive, the island’s sandy streets and colorful murals welcome you with a laid-back, tropical charm. For the next two hours, the island is yours to explore: wander along sunlit paths, rent a bike, or cruise in a golf cart through palm-framed streets filled with art, boutique shops, and cozy beach cafés.
Then, recharge with a delicious included beachfront lunch under a traditional palapa. With your feet in the sand, savor the flavors of Holbox: breaded fish fillet, garlic fish, or a spicy a la diabla version—fresh from the sea and full of local flavor.

Finally, you’ll reach Punta Mosquito, a place that feels almost unreal. Here, shallow, crystal-clear waters stretch for miles, reflecting the sky so perfectly that it feels like you’re walking among the clouds.
