Bioluminescent Night Kayaking
Aug. 11/12/13 8pm sunset -10pm
Sept 9/10/11 7pm sunset 9pm
Multiple days are being offered in case of weather issues. We will attempt to consolidate participants into one date.
When most people think of glowing ocean creatures they think it only happens in warm waters like Puerto Rico and Florida. But at the end of a nice sunny summer (Aug/Sept) we also can get some epic bioluminescence too! Created as a defense by microscopic zooplankton and comb jellies if you have never seen this phenomenon it can be a life changing experience! We only offer this tour on dark moonless nights Aug/Sept. Learn more about these creatures with our knowledgeable guides. We provide headlamps, and boat lights to keep you safe.
