Bioluminescent Plankton Kayak Tour
Kayaking with Glowing Plankton
Depending on the lunar calendar, we'll meet at Palomino Street in Holbox.
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. Afterwards, we'll paddle for another 25 minutes to the place from where we set sail. Finally, we'll walk for about 10 minutes to the meeting point.
Tour Schedule
The appearance of luminescent plankton is a natural phenomenon and therefore depends on the lunar calendar. Once you have made your booking, the provider will contact you to give you the exact pickup time.
