Adventures

Snorkeling at night? Really?

Yes, really! It sounds crazy and scary at first glance, but we assure you’ll become one with nature after 5 minutes in the water. Far from being an extreme experience, is kind of a purifying one. It’s the perfect chance to get out of our daily comfort zone, and remember how little we are on this huge universe.

Many people compare the experience to Pandora of “Avatar.” Some even recall the bioluminescence scene in “Life of Pi”.

Enjoy bioluminescence on this premium night snorkeling tour in Cancun.

Let the moon illuminate your path as you snorkel along the warm and shallow waters of the Great Mayan Reef, covering a route of 1,000 mts (3,000 ft) swiming along living coral reef, curious and playful turtles (we find 1-5 turtles on the 95-98% of the times) and colorful fishes. Escape with us to the most otherworldly experience that Cancun has to offer.

Well swim over 3 different areas, for a total duration of 1.5 hours- 2 hours in the water:

Our first stop is in very well conserved coral reef, where we'll admire different coral formations and sea life that can only be found at night such as octopus,moray eels, squid, lobsters, crabs.

We'll swim helped by the current to our 2nd area, where we'll find turtles and rays. For some of our customers they consider this the best part of our tour, since swimming with turtles is such an unusual experience!

The tour is almost over, but the best is about to come. Lights off! Shake your hands and feet and amaze yourself with bioluminiscence. Millions of little tiny particles lighting around you! We call this the Tinkerbell experience =)

How is this possible?

Our work starts way before you arrive. Our crew marks the zone that we’ll explore with light buoys while there’s still sunlight. This is used as reference to our guides when there’s no light but the moon’s one.

In addition, you’ll be provided with a submergible lamp, that will allow you to watch the coral reef and sea life to detail, it seems the colors are magnified, you’ll be speachless!

The best always comes last!

Imagine yourself in the sea, with nothing around you but water, in total darkness. Everything is calm and silent. Surprisingly you’re fearless, in total peace, you’ve realized you’re part of a big whole thing called Earth.

The swirling of your hand, every kick, sparkle throughout the darkness. Shake your hands, move your feet, millions of lights shining around you! This is better known as bioluminiscence.

It is actually the biological response of microscopic algae called a dinoflagellate, the perfectly natural and harmless concentration of organisms produces light before your very eyes, often existing in millions per liter of water.

Didn’t you know we had this in Cancun? Don’t worry, 98% of the people doesn’t know either.
