Beware, the x in Mayan says "ch"!

An island in the Yucatan, timeless 
35km long and 1km wide, a strip of land, or rather sand, barely separated by the mainland by the lagoon Yalahan. The small village of Holbox is mainly inhabited by fishermen who move only golf cart, cyclo, motorbike, bicycle and on foot of course, since there is no road but only sandy paths. Hotels like the houses are built of wood Cabanettes following local tradition creating a homogenous, authentic and welcoming atmosphere.
