Lisa and I have done our share of island hopping over the years. From Padre Island in south Texas, Caye Calker, Belize, the Greek islands of Myconos, Santorini, and Hydra, to Isla Mujeres and Cozumel in Mexico. You can’t plan a tour of the Yucatan without having Isla Holbox (‘ol bosh) come on the radar. Asking about, I was surprised how many Bacalareños had not visited it.
We arrived in Chiquila on the coast. Folks make their living by providing parking as Holbox is a golf cart only island. I did some fancy backing to fit our truck into the space provided. Buena chofer and smiles all around.
We watched amazing sunsets from a little hotel on the beach.
For three days we’ve visited with the neighbors and watched a pair of ospreys tend to their young.
Isla Holbox is one of those places you wished you’d visited ten or twenty years ago, before the fancy hotels and easy access. But I’m glad we got here when we did. Bringing our bicycles allowed us to see more of the island without renting transportation.
We’re off today to continue our adventure. Next stop Rio Lagartos, flamingo capital of the Yucatan. DOS TORTAS
