This is a must do adventure! Stunningly beautiful, very well organized, great guides and more than just watching the sunrise! Beach breakfast, quick walk to a gorgeous lookout and snorkeling rounded it all out! A perfect day and it’s only 9:30 am! Ferguson and Humberto were incredible guides - efficient and well versed in the area. Peppered the tour with interesting facts and trivia!

Sandra_E, Feb 2026

Well organized trip with pick up and drop off as expected. Unloading and loading of the kayaks could’ve been a bit faster with an additional staff member. The breakfast was nicely presented. They might need a new insulated container to keep the coffee hotter, and people seemed to like the pastry, but there needed to be more pastry. Lots of fruit! The kayaking in the ocean and to the couple of small beaches was wonderful and seeing the sunrise was a lovely experience. The two guides were experienced and could help people of all levels. There was a short hike from one beach to a view, which was good.

Response from Host, Feb 2026

Natali_G, Jul 2025

Our guides Heriberto and Jimena were amazing!! Watching the sunrise was amazing! We were able to see some sea turtles as well! Heriberto and Jimena provided us with fruits and drinks! We also did snorkeling which was also fun to do! Heriberto and Jimena were so nice and friendly!

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Thank you for taking the time to write these words. We hope to see you soon in Huatulco.

Great morning activity!

Tri_N, Jun 2025

Ferguson and Heirberto whatsapp us beforehand and confirmed pickup details. Pickup was timely, and we went to kayak first then breakfast and snorkel after. We went during really choppy waters so most everyone got seasick kayaking, so they took us to breakfast at the turn around point. Breakfast was some pastries, fruits they cut right there, coffee and some juice. Snorkeling is done in the bay and you can do it with the life vest for the not great swimmers. Lots of fish and sealife! You can also ask to just stay at the Playa Entrega afterwards and rent snorkel gear from the beach vendors, instead of taking the van back. Taxis are plenty too get back into town. I recommend water shoes so you don’t cut your foot on coral when snorkeling.

Response from Host, Jun 2025

Thank you for your words, we hope to see you soon in Huatulco and enjoy another adventure.

Kayak Sunrise + Snorkel

Christopher_S, Feb 2025

We had an amazing time. The tour was exactly as advertised. Went with a group of 9 friends. Had the pleasure of having Ferguson and his crew lead the tour. Pick-up in the morning was prompt for the time we had discussed. We arrived at Playa La Entrega (A must visit beach in Huatulco - especially earlier in the morning before the crowds. Amazing coral!) just before sunrise. Ferguson gave great instructions and safety measures (this gave us comfort going into the ocean - even though the entire group has moderate kayak experience). We ventured in the ocean for over 7kms or so, observing various highlights and beautiful scenery surrounding us. It was a pretty surreal experience for our entire group. Ferguson was great at pointing out the history, unique natural phenomena etc. which made the journey even more impactful. Afterwards we enjoyed the still majorly vacant beach, had a wonderful breakfast provided by the crew, did some amazing snorkelling over the reef, swam to a bat cave, and enjoyed a celebratory beverage at the beach restaurant before taking off! If you are looking to have a safe, unique experience that is once in a lifetime I would highly recommend this tour!

Response from Host, Feb 2025

Thanks for your comments, we will pass these on to Ferguson. We hope to see you soon on another adventure

Worth the early morning :)

MIchelle_M, Jan 2025

We had so much fun on this tour. It was worth waking up early! We didn't see any animals, but we did get to see some bioluminescence! The tour guides were great and were willing to take a few of us back that couldn't handle the swells (motion sick). Go snorkling after the kayak bc there is a really cool bat cave you can go into!

Response from Host, Feb 2025

Thank you for your comments, we hope that on a next visit we have more luck to see some of the marine fauna

Great experience, don't miss

Claude_D, Nov 2024

The entire crew was phenomenal. Timing of everything was perfect for sunrise. They served a delicious breakfast on the beach. Visit to bat cave and snorkeling at la entraga was a lot of fun. Snorkeling there was much better than expected, corals are very colorful.

Response from Host, Dec 2024

Thank you for your words. We congratulate the members of the group. We hope to see you on another adventure

Beautiful experience

Andrew_N, Apr 2024

Ferguson and his crew were fantastic guides, picking us up bright and early just after 5:00 AM, taking us out on the water for a couple of hours, and then a stop for fresh fruit, juice and optional snorkeling. They provide all of the gear, including snorkels. Highly recommend this excursion, especially if you're looking for something low key, intimate but still adventurous and unique.

Response from Host, Apr 2024

Hi Andrew! Thanks for share your opinion about the Kayak Sunrise in this plataform. We really had a great morning sharing this wonderful experience!! See you soon.

This was a lot of fun!

Anne_R, Apr 2024

I almost didn’t go when the trip got moved to the morning of a day when I had an afternoon flight, but I’m so glad I did go! The pick ups were well coordinated and we were on the water to see the sky start to change and the sun pop up. We spotted whales surfacing and one of the guide also pointed out a ray swimming with its “wings” out of the water! The beach stop and breakfast were super pleasant also. All of the guides were knowledgeable and helpful in getting all the kayakers going in the same general direction.

Response from Host, Apr 2024

Hello, Anne! Thank you very much for choosing Aventura Mundo !! We are very pleased to know that you had an extraordinary stay in Huatulco. We're glad to know that the work of all our team, have achieved your total satisfaction. We look forward to welcoming you again very soon. Thanks!!

Dont miss it

John_B, Apr 2024

Ferguson and Heriberto picked us up bright and early and continued to look after us for the duration of the excursion. Safety first with good quality gear and instructions. Although it was a bit cloudy, the views from the ocean were amazing. A nice breakfast and snokeling if you desire. It is easy to see why this is a top recommendation for activities in Huatulco.

Response from Host, Apr 2024

Hi Jhon! Thank you so much for sharing your experience about this amazing option for morning and adventorous people on this platform for travelers. We look forward to your soon return!

Get up and do this!

Justin_M, Mar 2024

This excursion was one of the top highlights of our vacation week. Beautiful views, good boats, and just a great time. Well worth getting up before the crack of dawn to see. Our guides were friendly, knowledgeable, and spoke both Spanish and English. The transport to and from our resort was quick and easy. Only thing is we wish we would’ve brought a snorkel and mask, as we assumed they were provided based on the description but that was not the case.

Response from Host, Apr 2024

Hi Justin, thank you for your words. I'm sure it was a big mistake or an oversight not to provide the equipment, I will check the issue with my coworkers. I invite you to contact us on a next trip and we will give you a 50% discount on any of our activities.

Do not miss out on this!

Christy_T, Dec 2023

Meet time is very early but it is so worth it to watch the sunrise over the horizon. Ferguson and his crew were awesome!

Response from Host, Jan 2024

Gracias

Great Experience

Tammie_S, Dec 2023

We had a great experience with Ferguson, Heriberto, and Carmen. Beautiful sunrise combined with flying manta rays made for a great trip. Our group was very friendly and enjoyable. We highly recommend, if you don't mind waking up early.

Response from Host, Dec 2023

Tammi Thank you very much for your kind words, we also enjoyed the sunrise, the show of jumping manta rays. We think it's well worth waking up early ;)

Excellent start to the day

Reece_P, Oct 2023

A must do! Amazing 🤩

Tania_A, Jul 2021

Most impressive time! Eriberto and Ferguson were amazing guides. Amiable and knowledgeable. Had never kayaked before and they provided adequate safety review and how tos with tips along the way. They were very patient and helpful. Able to see an amazing sunrise even with the humid haze and some sea turtles. Stopped by a beach to have coffee, cookies and fruit. An experience I will never forget and I’m so grateful. Gracias por todo!

Response from Host, Aug 2021
