Sandbars of Isla Holbox, Mexico

One reason to love Isla Holbox = the sandbars (swipe 👉 right!)⁠ 😍⁠ Thanks to its location on the north coast of Mexico's Yucatán Peninsula—where Caribbean Sea currents deposit sand along its shores—Isla Holbox is home to numerous sandbars.⁠ 🏖️⁠ Shallow waters, tidal patterns, and the island's protected status (Holbox is part of the protected nature reserve of Yum Balam) also contribute to their formation.⁠ 🌊⁠ As a visitor to the island, these sandbars offer beautiful places to walk and wade in the water. Some also have wildlife. In fact, I saw flamingos while on a sandbar near Passion Island (which you see on the last slide of the carousel).⁠ 🦩⁠ Have you visited the beautiful Isla Holbox?
