Understanding Holbox Island's Layout

Holbox is a long, narrow island — about 42 km from tip to tip, but most of the action is concentrated in the western third. Here's a quick orientation:

Town Center (Pueblo)

The heart of Holbox — the main square, most restaurants, bars, shops, and the ferry pier are all here. Hotels in this area give you easy walking access to everything, though they may be a short stroll from the best beaches.

Main Beach (Playa Norte area)

Stretching along the northern coast just west of town, this is the postcard Holbox — shallow turquoise water, white sand, and the iconic overwater hammocks. Most boutique hotels and beach clubs are concentrated here.

Eastern Tip

As you head east, the island gets quieter and wilder. Properties here offer stunning solitude, panoramic views, and that true end-of-the-road feeling. You'll need a golf cart or bike to get into town.

Punta Mosquito

The far western point, famous for flamingo sightings at sunrise. Not many hotels here — more of a day-trip destination from wherever you're staying.


Tips for Getting Around Holbox in 2026

  • No cars on the island — golf carts, bikes, and walking are how everyone gets around
  • Rent a golf cart for a day if you want to explore the full length of the island
  • Bikes are free or cheap at many hotels and rental spots near the town square
