This experience combines adventure, nature, and one of the ocean’s most fascinating phenomena: bioluminescence.
**Bioluminescence in motion** – You don’t just watch it—you interact with it. Every paddle stroke and movement in the water can create tiny flashes of light around you.
**A peaceful experience** – No engines or noise, just the paddles, the water, and the sounds of the night as you make your way toward Los Arcos.
**Respect for marine life** – By traveling only with paddles, we reduce noise and our impact on the marine environment.
**A hands-on adventure** – Here, you’re not just a passenger. You paddle, explore, and experience the ocean from water level.
More than simply seeing bioluminescence, you’ll experience everything around it: the darkness, the silence, Los Arcos, and the feeling of moving across the ocean beneath the stars.
This isn’t simply a tour to see bioluminescence. It’s a different way to experience it.
What's Included
Meeting and pickup
Important: Paddle Zone transport leaves exactly 1 hour before your tour start time. For example, if your experience starts at 5:30 PM, transportation will leave at 4:30 PM. We ask you to arrive 10 minutes before departure to board on time and avoid delays.
What to expect
This phenomenon can be observed throughout the year. Depending on the season and the lunar phase, we will recommend doing the experience before sunrise or after sunset, looking for the best conditions.
We will paddle from our beach club in Mismaloya to Los Arcos Marine National Park, one of the most emblematic places in Puerto Vallarta. When darkness envelops the sea, the magic begins: every stroke and movement in the water can awaken small sparks of light.
Without engines or noise, only the oars, the ocean, and the night, they will discover The Arches from a completely different perspective.
Upon returning, seasonal fruit, cookies, bonbons, and hot chocolate await you by our bonfire in front of the sea.
The photographs of the tour and the round-trip transportation from our meeting point in Puerto Vallarta are included.
And if you want to stay a little longer, you can close the experience enjoying the pizzas from our restaurant.
