    Travelers will experience a unique night experience exploring one of the most surprising natural phenomena: bioluminescence. The adventure begins with the transfer from your hotel to the Laguna de Manialtepec or the Lagunas de Chacahua, where you will board a boat to sail under the starry sky. During the tour, a local guide will explain how microorganisms called dinoflagellates produce the blue glow that illuminates the water with each movement. If conditions permit, they can swim in the bioluminescent waters and watch as each stroke creates light flashes around them. They will also enjoy the nightscape and learn about the lagoon ecosystem and the importance of conserving this natural phenomenon. At the end, you will return comfortably to your hotel with the memory of a magical and unforgettable night in Puerto Escondido.
