Workation in Holbox: the essentials
Holbox is a car-free island off the northern tip of the Yucatán Peninsula, reached by ferry from Chiquilá (about two hours' drive from Cancún). Sand streets, golf carts, bioluminescence in summer and whale sharks from June to September make it a favourite for a week off. As a work base it is marginal: the island has no coworking, electricity and internet drop out regularly, mobile data is the fallback and rentals are priced for tourists. Streets flood after heavy rain and sargassum can arrive in summer. Consider it for a short, mostly offline stay or pair it with a longer stint in Cancún or Mérida.
