About

El Bucanero is part beach bar, part barbecue pit, with an enormous wood-fired grill that takes center stage on the sand. Whole fish, octopus skewers, and lobster halves are cooked over open flame while guests wade in the shallows with drinks in hand. The Friday night fish fry draws the island's expat community and is the closest thing Holbox has to a weekly social institution.
