Experience a full day tour of turtle release and bioluminescence at Manialtepec Lagoon. Witness newborn turtles making their way to the sea, enjoy a stunning sunset, and marvel at the captivating natural phenomenon of bioluminescence. Dive into the water and embrace the energy of nature.
- Tangolunda Bay - We leave the hotel zone to go to the Escobilla turtle camp.
- Centro Ecoturístico La Escobilla - We begin our adventure with two activities that mother nature offers us. The first is the release of turtles in a turtle camp, a magical place where we will have the opportunity to live an unforgettable experience by being in contact with one of the endangered marine animals. Three of the eight existing species of turtles inhabit the Oaxacan coast and we will be able to help some of them recently hatched to return to their natural habitat. Of this time we will take 1 hour and 45 minutes en route to reach the point of interest
- Puerto Escondido - We will take coastal highway 200, which will take us to Puerto Escondido, which we will cross in the direction of the Punta Colorada viewpoint.
- Playa Punta Colorada - In this viewpoint we will enjoy a unique sunset on the beach of Punta Colorada, with a view of several kilometers in the direction of sunset.
-
Bioluminiscencia Laguna Manialtepec - Then, we will arrive at the Manialtepec lagoon, where we will live the second experience. We will board a boat that will take us to the center of the lagoon to observe the wonderful phenomenon of Bioluminescence. This spectacle is possible thanks to microorganisms known as dinoflagellates, a species of marine plankton or phytoplankton that reproduces in these calm waters. This spectacular phenomenon occurs under certain natural conditions, since the lagoon naturally traps these tiny beings that enter with the growing sea and remain trapped in it for a considerable time. It is a phenomenon that can only be observed in two lagoons in Mexico. We will have the opportunity to touch the water or immerse ourselves, which will allow us to clear our minds and charge ourselves with energy.
Then we will return to your hotels.
