On this bioluminescent plankton tour by kayak, we'll observe these peculiar microorganisms up close on one of the quietest coasts of Holbox. Ready to be fascinated by the magic of nature?
Kayaking with Glowing Plankton
Depending on the lunar calendar, we’ll come and collect you from your hotel in Holbox. Are you ready to enjoy a magical evening? Welcome to this luminescent plankton kayaking tour!
After being welcomed, we'll walk along the beach to identify stars and constellations using lasers and binoculars. We'll then equip ourselves with all the necessary equipment and paddle for about 25 minutes to Punta Mosquito, where, surrounded by the darkness of the night, we'll witness the magic of luminescent plankton.
Upon arrival at this spot, you'll have 45 minutes free to swim and interact with the luminescence. We'll then paddle for another 25 minutes back to where we set off from, and finally walk for about 10 minutes to the Holbox sign, where the activity will end.
