Magical Tour!

Published on Mar, 2024

Wonderful tour! Pablo was friendly, knowledgeable and even helped with photographing the stars! It’s a magical hour and the bioluminescence didn’t disappoint.

Amazing experience

Published on Dec, 2023

We really enjoyed this trip. We were picked up from the hotel by our friendly guide and driven to the bay. Be prepared to get into the water up to below knee height to be able to see the bioluminescence, we had plenty of time to splash around looking at it. It was an amazing experience and thoroughly recommend it.

Great nature experience!!

Published on Sep, 2023

We had a really unique experience with a very relaxed and qualified guide (Carlos). The bioluminescene are hard to catch with your camera, but even more unique to experience with your own eyes. Also the bright stars and milkyway are great to add on your bucketlist! Antine & Wouter from Holland.

A playful family time!

Published on Aug, 2023

it was an amazing experience from the beginning, the car pick us from the hotel entrance, car was comfortable and take us to the farest darkest areas into Punta Cocos' shore, getting in the water and starting to see how it shine is beautiful view, it is not like in the pictures, but it is magic in its way. after about 30 minutes they call us back to the cars and bring us back to the hotel A playful family time to remember.

Such a unique experience

Published on May, 2023

This was such a cool experience. We were picked up/dropped off straight from our hotel, and driven out to the west side of the island. The bioluminescence was stronger than I expected, and seeing it light up while wading and swimming was too cool. Go near a new moon for the best effect!
