Best tour guide and turtle release experience - I booked this tour through Viator and left my review there, but am also going to share it here since I'm still thinking about it months after it's happened: This tour was amazing. We were picked up early and had a small family join us so it was intimate. Because the tour was so long we were given an option of stopping for lunch or dinner and he took us to a beautiful beach with restaurants on the way. Along the way our guide also gave us tons of interesting information about the area and history. Plus we stopped for a chocolate tasting and had an option for tequila tasting :) The turtle release was magical, with each of us having a baby turtle in a bowl to release. The bioluminescence experience was amazing. Even on a bright/ full moon night we were able to see the sparkles due to big tent-like structures in the water. You had to take a 20min boat ride and swim in the water to get in the tent but very worth it and the water was very comfortable. Overall amazing.

Super tour - The tour very cool. And Mario's attention excellent. It's a little far from Huatulco, but it's worth it. Consider that the return journey will be at night.

An experience you can't miss! - The release of turtles was super nice, a spectacular sunset on the beach makes this moment unique. The bioluminescence was fine, before booking check the lunar calendar so that the line is at its lowest percentage of luminosity to enjoy the experience 100% The guides are super cool and make the tour a fun and unique time, super recommended!
