Overview

Embark on a nighttime adventure into the waters of Holbox. See and learn about the wonders of bioluminescence and marvel at incredible microscopic organisms that glow in the dark.

After getting picked up from your hotel or hostel, you will enjoy a short drive to Punta Cocos. Arrive at this incredible location where the only thing brighter than the stars in the sky is the fantastically blue glow of the naturally-occurring bioluminescent phenomenon in the water below.

Your guide will walk you through the lagoon where you can admire this incredible phenomenon. Take photos and learn about the bioluminescence and its secrets. Before returning to your accommodation, admire the wonderful sky and learn about the constellations. You can also swim if you wish.

It is important to keep in mind that this tour doesn't have a specific schedule as we depend on the moon & the darkness!! The tour could start between 7:00 pm to 4:30 am. We will let you know the exact hour.
