Full-day excursion to Lagunas de Chacahua National Park
Discover one of Mexico's most impressive and unspoiled natural treasures: **Lagunas de Chacahua National Park**, a perfect combination of lagoons, mangrove forests, pristine beaches, and magical bioluminescence.
**Tour highlights:**
- Pick-up at 12:00 noon directly from your hotel or accommodation in Puerto Escondido.
- 1-hour scenic drive to the quiet fishing village, where your private boat will be waiting for you.
- Relaxing boat ride through the immense Chacahua lagoon system, surrounded by dense mangroves.
- Amazing bird and wildlife watching: herons, ibises, roseate spoonbills, kingfishers, crocodiles (from a safe distance), and countless tropical flowers blooming along the water's edge.
- Arrival at the paradisiacal beaches of Chacahua Island: miles of golden sand and turquoise waters with hardly anyone around.
- Free time to swim in the warm ocean, stroll along the beach, or relax in a hammock.
- Delicious lunch or early dinner at the beachfront restaurant of your choice (fresh seafood, ceviche, tlayudas, and cold drinks; food is not included so you can choose exactly what you want).
- Spectacular sunset over the Pacific from one of the most beautiful viewpoints on the Oaxaca coast.
- At dusk, return by boat across the calm lagoon. With luck and clear skies, you will be able to witness the famous **bioluminescence**: every movement in the water is illuminated by millions of glowing microorganisms (you can even swim in the luminous water!).
- Safe transfer back to your accommodation in Puerto Escondido.
