Highlights
  • Yalahau Lagoon - This natural cenote is located 30 minutes by boat from Holbox Island. It was used as a refuge for the famous pirate Molas in the16th Century. For many years, Yalahao was a natural fresh water source for the Holbox community.

Yalahao is the name given to both the cenote between Holbox Island and the mainland, and the spring fed pool on the island’s edge. The beautiful spring, which is fed by water that crosses the island’s jungle are part of a protected ecological reserve.

Yalahao Spring is considered a magic place in local folklore and history. The spring was originally important to Mayan fishermen and travelers who used the spring as a source of fresh drinking water. It was also a port for seafaring Mayan traders, until one Mayan King closed it for his own use. Legends say that the king turned Yalahao into a private place where only his wives could swim. The king built beautiful gardens and fountains around the natural cove and made a royal swimming pool decorated with green jade.
