Turtle Release + Laguna de Manialtepec Evening Tour

After picking you up from your hotel at the scheduled time, we will drive towards Puerto Escondido for 2 hours and 30 minutes, arriving at the turtle camp dedicated to the protection of sea turtles.

Experience a highlight of your visit to Mexico: freeing recently hatched turtles. There are three endangered turtle species native to Oaxaca, and you will have the chance to assist in their survival. This moment at sunset on a beach is special.

Next, we will visit Manialtepec Lagoon, where you will board a boat to witness the natural phenomenon of bioluminescence.

This phenomenon occurs due to microorganisms in the water that emit light when disturbed. The result is a stunning spectacle similar to shooting stars beneath the sea. You may swim in the lagoon and see your body illuminated by these organisms.

The tour concludes back at your hotel in Huatulco nine hours after departure.
