Mexican Islands

Scattered across the glistening blue waters along the Yucatan and Quintana Roo coastlines, spend your days walking along white sand beaches, hammock dwelling and swimming in the turquoise sea on a Mexican Islands holiday. Mexico has a lot to offer and a holiday to the Mexican Islands provides a unique travel experience.

Sun, sea and swimming on holidays to the Mexican Islands

While the sun soaked islands of Cozumel, Isla Holbox, and Isla Mujeres have their differences, there’s one thing they all have in common – a relaxed atmosphere.

Cozumel thrives with tiny streets that are brimming with cosy restaurants and bars. Away from the town, the island boasts the second biggest barrier reef system in the world – the renowned Mesoamerican Barrier Reef. Snorkel or dive to discover a whole new world of vibrant coral reef and tropical fish species that live beneath the ocean’s surface.

For a wildlife encounter to remember, head to Isla Holbox to meet the migrating flamingos that frolic and graze in the island’s shallow lagoons and pale blue waters. Filled with sprawling sandy beaches, Isla Holbox is the ideal Mexican Island holiday hotspot to enjoy doing absolutely nothing. When you do crave a dose of vibrancy, head to a rooftop bar to sip a margarita or two.

Isla Mujeres packs a punch considering its size. Indulge in hearty Mexican fare in one of the buzzy restaurants, or for an ocean adventure, a visit to the underwater museum is a must for keen divers. Discover artistic sculptures living beneath the waves in one of the best underwater museums in the world. Similar destinations that you could possible visit during your Mexican island holidays are Cancun and Yucatan Peninsula.
