Holbox Island is a paradise kitesurfing holiday destination located north of Mexico’s Yucatán Peninsula and Cancun. As part of Mexico’s largest ecological reserve, Yum Balam, the island is mostly covered in wild mangroves and long stretches of white sandy beaches. At just 12km by 1.5km, Isla Holbox is a haven for birdlife with the locals making their living mainly from fishing. A beautiful lagoon separates the island of Holbox from Mexico and is easily accessed by a short ferry ride. This island offers a chance to get away from the bustling resorts and tourist-centric beaches of much of Mexico and connect with nature in a postcard Caribbean setting. Colourful murals, turquoise waters, bohemian cafes, unpaved streets and no cars to speak of, make this rural getaway in a once-in-a-lifetime experience. The relaxed island vibe sets the perfect atmosphere for your next kitesurfing holiday in Holbox!
