Plan my tripHolbox Private Trips · reply in minutesHolbox is a sandy, car-free island on the Gulf side of the peninsula. Getting there takes planning: about 2.5 to 3 hours by road from Cancún to the port of Chiquilá, then a ferry of around 30 minutes. On the island, golf carts and bikes replace cars.
Viviana arranges the trip end to end: a private SUV from Cancún airport or your hotel, the ferry or a private boat across, a golf cart and a hotel or house on the island, and the experiences that make Holbox special, from whale sharks in summer to flamingos at Punta Mosquito and sunset at Punta Cocos.
