What you’ll do on the Holbox Island Private Sunset Tour

This Holbox private sunset tour takes your group by boat to snorkel in the Yalahau cenote, visit the viewpoint on Isla de la Pasión and watch the sunset on Holbox Island. It is a private afternoon trip for up to 8 people, ideal for couples, families and friends staying on Holbox who want a relaxed boat outing of their own.

What you'll do

  • Get a taxi from your hotel on Holbox to the ferry dock, arranged by our guide.
  • Board your private boat at 4:00 PM, with bottled water, soda and music on board.
  • Snorkel in the Yalahau cenote and look for the species that live there.
  • Stop at Isla de la Pasión, a quiet island with thick vegetation and calm, clear water, and visit its viewpoint for photos and video.
  • Finish on Holbox Island to watch the sun set and light up the beach.
  • Return to the Holbox ferry dock.

Who it's for

This tour is for travelers who prefer a private boat instead of a shared group. It suits all fitness levels, and travelers of all ages can join. It works well for couples looking for a quiet sunset, for families with children and for small groups of friends of up to 8 people. Because the boat is private, only your group is on board for all three stops: a snorkel at the cenote, a short island visit and the sunset on the beach.

Read this before you book

Send us your accommodation first. Not every address can be reached by our vehicles. Send your hotel or Airbnb to one of our advisors on WhatsApp and they will confirm whether we pick you up at the door or agree a meeting point nearby.

Your pickup time is not the tour start time. They are very different. We collect you well before activities begin, because the drive and the other pickups on the route take time. Your advisor gives you your exact pickup time when your booking is confirmed — go by that time, not by the departure hour shown on this page.
