Holbox is a small island off the Yucatán Peninsula, and getting around is mostly on foot, by golf cart or by bicycle rather than by car. Visitors arriving from the mainland typically come by ferry, and the island's compact layout means the restaurant is easy to find from the main village area. Mexican island food centres on seafood — ceviche, fish tacos, grilled octopus and conch — with lime and chilli, and that style of cooking shapes what most kitchens on Holbox serve.
With 576 reviews and a 4.6 out of 5 average, La Tapatía has drawn a steady stream of diners over time. Spanish is the main language; Yucatec Maya is spoken in the Yucatán Peninsula and English is common in resorts, so visitors can usually get by without much trouble. Flamingos nest around Isla Holbox, and sea turtles nest on many Mexican island beaches, so the natural surroundings are part of what brings people to the island.
Cozumel and Isla Mujeres have passenger ferries from Playa del Carmen and Cancún, and Cozumel has an airport, which gives a sense of how the region's island connections work for travellers moving between the mainland and the coast.
