This show is produced thanks to a biochemical process by which certain microorganisms emit light when in contact with the movement of water. The lagoon houses a large concentration of these organisms, which allows the water to magically light up by shaking it. We recommend wearing a swimsuit to enjoy this experience in a unique way. The tour will take place on board a small boat, and those who wish to swim can activate bioluminescence and marvel at this natural phenomenon. At the end of the day, the group will be able to decide if they want to stop for dinner or snack before starting their return to Huatulco.
