What To Expect
This tour is available all year. Florida has not one but two types of bioluminescence. In the cooler months, our lagoons are inundated with Bioluminescent Comb-Jellyfish. These creatures emit blue-green light. The jellyfish will also light up in the palm of your hand, and don't worry, they don't sting! This immersive experience is a hit with kids and adults alike, and you'll be talking about it for months. In the summer, the dinoflagellate plankton thrives. Every stroke of your paddle lights up the water with a bright neon blue. The fish moving around look like colorful fireworks. See more with a clear kayak. Titusville/Merritt Island in Florida is home to the only bioluminescent bay in the continental US, offering visitors the chance to witness this incredible display of nature up close. As one of only four companies authorized to work on the Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge, we offer bioluminescent tours that are guided and safe. Our expert guides will take you on a journey that is both informative and fun, sharing their knowledge and passion for this natural phenomenon. These Florida kayak tours book out 2 weeks in advance. Please make your reservations in advance.

4.00This was one of the BEST experiences whilst in Florida - Brian was an excellent guide and allowed & encouraged us to enjoy the peace & silence - the water, the stars and the whole experience was u forgettable. Would have been top marks except for a pretty last minute change of venue which meant an additional long drive and poor communication regarding it. Cover up the mosquitoes are everywhere!

5.00This was hands down one of the coolest experiences I have ever had. The guide was incredibly knowledgeable, patient and funny. He did a great job with the entire group. We not only saw the bioluminescent jellyfish but the plankton. We also saw a manatee with her baby, and an alligator on the bank.

5.00Chaz was a great guide. The weather wasn’t the greatest for us, but we still had a great time. Very little bioluminescence due to the storms, but we were able to see a little under the bridge.
