Let yourself fall in love with this phenomenon in a night kayaking through the beaches and sand banks of our island where you can enjoy the magic of the shine of plankton in the water, surrounded by an unforgettable stellar mantle.

This was the hightlight of our trip to Holbox! A truly unique experience, leave your phone at home, wear aqua socks and something that is ok to get wet but also protect you from the elements.

Great experience! They picked us up at a convenient location near our hotel. Our guide Dali was very helpful and informative. Everything was very straightforward. I’m from Puerto Rico and have been to all 3 bioluminescent bays there and I must say I was pleasantly surprised by how great and beautiful this one in Holbox was! Both the water and the sand bank where they took us glow up (even our footsteps in the sand glow which I have never seen before!). Highly recommended!

Lovely experience - from beginning to end.
Daniela our guide was so nice and knowledgeable!
Kayaking under the stars was already a great experience plus the plankton.

Our guide was wonderful - friendly, knowledgable and enthusiastic. We kayaked out at night, were lucky to find the bioluminescence and swim among it. Highly recommended!

This tour was AWESOME! We’ve never seen anything like this. Mimi and Diego were amazing, communicative hosts. Would highly recommend.
And an fyi, because we missed this in the instructions: wear a bathing suit so you can jump in the water!

Cancell without communication. Does not listen to explaination. Answer fast but with no intention of helping

The guide was friendly, informative, relaxed, and capable. It was an evening with not much bioluminescence, but we still were able to see at least two different kinds, and just floating around on the warm ocean at night under the stars was pretty magical!

We took off from the Holbox beach and kayaked around near the Playa Mosquito area. When we went far enough we were able to see the bioluminiscent plankton when we swirled our hands in the water, one our kayak paddles and even our clothes! Its currently not at full visibility, but its increasing rapidly. I believe we saw it at 65% visibility.
Pick a night where there's atleast 3-5 hours between sunset and moonrise so that you can go on this tour at a reasonable hour. The waters around playa mosquito are not very deep, so swimming is very safe. Everyone has to wear a life vest.
One thing to note is that the bioluminescent organisms aren't shining clouds of light as they show in the pictures. Its very subtle, and you will enjoy it once your eyes adjust to the darkness. Part of the experience is also to enjoy kayaking in the dark.
Our team was great!
