It was one of the most amazing experiences I've had when traveling and I have traveled lots 😉 I have to admit the weather conditions were perfect. A distant storm with lightning, far away, long relaxing boatride with the setting sun in the golden hour, no wind, no clouds, the perfect clear sky, the most starts I might have ever seen. And the fortune of actually seeing the biolumenescent plankton! It's hard to discribe the beauty of this experience. But also the organization went smooth. We were given life jackets to chill in the lagoon and enjoy the show. The organisation gave us plenty of time to soak in the experience, quite literally and figuratively. I couldn't choose weather to look at the sky or wiggle in the plankton.

I LOVED the entire experience. The oy thing I would recommend is that if you are waiting for food at the beach and they are busy, you up to the lighthouse very quick instead of waiting because it takes a long time. We swam in the Chacahua lake for the bioluminescence and it was spectacular. Our guide was very knowledgeable and informative. Chihuahua is beautiful.

Estuvo increíble, vale muchísimo la pena. Antonio, nuestro guía, fue muy amable y nos dio el recorrido muy bien! De regreso nos tocó lluvia pero eso hizo más mágico este paseo a caballo. Lo recomiendo demasiado, sin duda, volveré para hacer este recorrido con ellos.

We had an AMAZING time with our guide and boat captain on the Laguna. We saw every bird we wanted to, including two mangrove cuckoos, and got to laugh and practice our Spanish with our new friends. The boat is very nice and has a cover if you need shade. We got to see many different parts of the lagoon and the river. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone interested in birds. Bring snacks and lots of water!

Dolphin and turtle tour We booked onto the dolphin boat tour with scepticism as dolphin tours I have done in the past means you get to see the corner of a fin a couple of times. This couldn’t be more different! We found multiple huge pods of dolphins, each time they were happily swimming alongside the boat and jumping out the water. We then had two opportunities to swim with them, seeing them underwater and hearing them was amazing. To round it off, the guys caught three huge tuna which we were able to enjoy when we got back to shore - made into sashimi, ceviche and grilled steaks for just 70 pesos each. Would definitely recommend over other tours!

Awesome tour We went on the Dolphin watching cruise and it was incredible. Starting with a cruise along the Puerto coastline watching a beautiful sun rise then we motored a few km's out to spot dolphins and other marine life. We were lucky enough to see all four species that live in the area, we got to see them up close as they swam along the bow of the boat and jumped out of the water. It was such an amazing experience to see them so close We also caught a few yellowfin tuna which we had the option of eating when we returned to shore. Our guides were excellent with communication, speaking English and Spanish and keeping us informed the whole trip with interesting facts. We had an awesome time and well reccommend this tour, you won't be disappointed.

Dolphin Mania The trip started calmly with a short explanation about Puerto Escondido and the different coast lines. Afterwards we headed into the deep blue see! At first we spotted a couple of see turtles and two different species of dolphins who were swimming next to our boat. But the best was yet to come.... our guide Joel was in contact with some other friends on the water who spotted a huge school of Dolphins, so we headed over there. And what we saw was beyond imagination... a true natures miracle! We were surrounded by hundreds of dolphins. They were everywhere, playing with our boat and doing tricks. Our guide told us to jump in the water for an even better experience, so we did and WOAW. We have never experienced something like this before... the dolphins were swimming underneath us and we could hear them communicating with each other. It was one of the (dol)finest (haha) moments on our Mexico trip!We highly recommend this tour!!!! Thank you Joel and team!Love, The Belgian chicas.
