Colorful murals adorn the wooden houses and palapas; it is worth taking the time to admire the street art while biking or shopping in the Main Square. One of the unmissable activities when you are in Holbox is to go on a tour to watch and swim with whale sharks, which visit the waters of the island every year between the months of May and September. These harmless giant fish reach 14 meters and weigh up to 15 tons; They also live up to 100 years.

In addition to swimming with whale sharks, visitors can take an excursion to the Yalahau cenote, which according to legend is "the fountain of eternal youth." The cenote is one of the points visited on the Tour of the Three Islands, as is Isla Pájaros, which is home to more than 150 species and birds, among which the pink flamingos stand out, which can be observed between the months of April to October; and the small Isla Pasión, which is ideal for enjoying the beach due to its keys and gentle waves.
