A new favorite with tourists is Holbox Island, reached by boat from Cancun. Aside from being pristine, and, until recently, almost undiscovered, Holbox also is an ideal place to swim with whale sharks. Whale sharks can be 40 feet long or more, making them the world’s biggest fish. Like real whales, they eat only plankton and other small creatures, making them no threat to scuba-diving tourists.
