The sunset and bioluminescence tour begins at Curu Beach at 5 p.m. and goes by outboard motor boat to the Tortuga Islands in a 15-minute trip. We make a stop at the white sand beach of the Tortuga Islands to enjoy the sunset and a snack of fruit and soft drinks. When it gets dark, we move with the boat to look for the best spot to see the bioluminescence. We stopped with the boat to explain the phenomenon and the factors that produce it. Bioluminescence can be observed, either from the boat or by swimming in the sea to better see the phenomenon. You can put on the snorkeling mask (included in the tour) to better see the phenomenon. Once the phenomenon is seen, we head to Curú beach where there are showers, parking, and restrooms for clients, ending the activity at approximately 7:30 p.m.
