Full description

Marvel at a spectacular natural show while crossing the lagoon in a boat with the help of a local instructor. Experience the delightful reaction of how millions of microorganisms begin to illuminate the water as you swim or while you touch the water through the boat. Witness this rare event as there are only 2 lagoons in Mexico that have this spectacular and beautiful phenomenon.

We bought the package super expensive, at 650 per person, we asked the local guides in hidden port and their price was 300 per person. The tour does not last what it says in the description of the way to get to the lake is 20 min and in the lake we were only 30 min, it does not last the 2:30 that it says in the description. The truck they took us in was very dirty
