What made the list, and what didn't

Holbox Snorkeling Tours List — How We Chose

We started from every product GetYourGuide lists for Holbox, kept the ones that include snorkelling gear, and added the boat trips people book instead when the sea or the season rules out a swim. Each card shows the listing as it was on 28 September 2026: the "from" price, rating with its count, and what the operator says about time on the boat and in the water. Where a listing doesn't say, the card says "not stated".
