Turtle Release + Laguna de Manialtepec Evening Tour

Live two unique experiences in Puerto Escondido: free recently hatched turtles, and enjoy the spectacle of bioluminescence in the Manialtepec lagoon.

Turtle Release + Laguna de Manialtepec Evening Tour

After hotel pickup, we will travel for 2 hours and 30 minutes to the turtle camp on the Oaxacan coast, dedicated to the protection of sea turtles. Here, you will participate in the freeing of recently hatched turtles, including three endangered species native to Oaxaca. This moment, set against the backdrop of a beach at sunset, is a memorable experience.

Following this, we will continue to Manialtepec Lagoon, a significant site in Puerto Escondido. Here, you will board a boat to experience the natural phenomenon of bioluminescence. This occurs due to microorganisms in the water that emit light upon contact with movement, creating a spectacle likened to shooting stars beneath the sea. Swimming in the lagoon allows you to see your body illuminated by these organisms.

The tour concludes with a return to your hotel in Huatulco, approximately nine hours after departure.
