Holbox: Guided Bioluminescence Tour with pick up

3.3 4 verified reviews

This guided night tour takes you into the waters of Holbox to see bioluminescence, the glow produced by microscopic organisms in the sea. The outing lasts about 90 minutes and includes pick-up and drop-off at your hotel or hostel.

After being picked up, you take a short drive to Punta Cocos. There, the only thing brighter than the stars is the blue glow of the bioluminescence in the water below. Your guide walks with you through the lagoon, where you can admire the phenomenon, take photos and learn about bioluminescence and its secrets.

Before heading back to your accommodation, you have time to look up at the sky and learn about the constellations with your guide. If you wish, you can also swim.

The schedule is the main thing to plan around. The tour has no fixed time because it depends on the moon and the darkness, and it can start anywhere between 7:00 pm and 4:30 am. The operator will tell you the exact hour, so be ready to adapt your evening to it.

The tour is listed as suitable for all physical fitness levels, and service animals are allowed. It suits families, couples and anyone curious about natural phenomena.

Pick-up and drop-off are included. When booking, let the operator know whether you are staying at the selected hotel or hostel, or whether it is only a pick-up or meeting point.
