HOLBOX NAMED ONE OF THE BEST ISLANDS IN NORTH AMERICA
December 4, 2024
The Island of Holbox has earned a spot on Condé Nast Traveller's 2024 list of the Top 10 Best Islands in North America. In the magazine's Reader’s Choice Awards, the idyllic island ranked fourth as the Best Island in North America, according to votes from global travelers. Located just north of Cancun, Holbox received an impressive score of 92.2% from travelers who recently visited the 42-kilometer-long island. The results of the Reader’s Choice Awards were announced last month. Holbox has been nominated in this category previously, having been named Best Island in North America in the 2023 Reader’s Choice Awards.
Bernardo Cueto Riestra, Secretary of Tourism for Quintana Roo, expressed that this recognition places both Holbox and the wider Mexican Caribbean on the global tourism map, celebrating the region's natural beauty and cultural richness.
“We are proud to see Holbox become an icon of North American tourism. Together with the Ministry of Tourism, we will continue working to improve infrastructure, preserve the natural environment, and promote the cultural authenticity that defines Quintana Roo,” he said.
“This achievement is just the beginning of a comprehensive strategy designed to bring opportunities and improve the quality of life for the families that are part of this community.”
Between January and August of this year, Holbox welcomed over 363,000 visitors. “With this award, Holbox solidifies its position as a unique destination that captivates travelers from around the world with its natural beauty and commitment to sustainability,” he concluded.
