Turtle Release + Laguna de Manialtepec Evening Tour

Experience two unique adventures in Puerto Escondido: release recently hatched turtles and witness the bioluminescence spectacle in Manialtepec Lagoon.

Turtle Release + Manialtepec Lagoon Evening Tour

After picking you up from your hotel at the scheduled time, we will travel towards Puerto Escondido. The journey takes approximately 2 hours and 30 minutes until we reach the turtle camp, a dedicated space on the Oaxacan coast focused on protecting sea turtles.

At the camp, you will participate in one of the most memorable activities during your visit to Mexico: releasing recently hatched turtles. This region is home to three types of endangered sea turtles native to Oaxaca. You will have the chance to support nature during this unforgettable sunset moment on a picturesque beach.

Next, we will head to Manialtepec Lagoon, a key attraction in Puerto Escondido where the second magical experience awaits. You will board a boat to explore the lagoon and witness the natural phenomenon of bioluminescence.

This remarkable effect is created by microorganisms present in the water, which emit light upon contact with moving objects. The result is a mesmerizing display that resembles shooting stars beneath the ocean. You can even swim in the lagoon and observe your body glowing in the light of these organisms, creating a magical experience!

Your adventure concludes as we return to your hotel in Huatulco, approximately nine hours after our departure.
