5.00What a cool experience! A leisurely kayak around the harbor, seeing large fish glow under the boat as bats flew by. And a gorgeous night sky as a bonus! Haley was a wonderful guide - knowledgeable about the local fauna and Island history, friendly, and fun. Would definitely recommend!

5.00What a fun experience to do in St. John! Only takes an hour and really neat. Kids had fun with the glow in the dark paint and really loved seeing the tarpon fish under our boat. We went at the 7pm hour and the sunset was beautiful. Great guides - super funny!!

5.00We had a blast. I couldn’t believe how large the fish that we saw in the harbor. It was fun putting on neon paint and taking pictures. It was definitely one of the highlights of our trip here to St. John.
Awesome!

5.00This kayak trip was awesome! We saw so many fish, one tried to jump into one of the kayaks. It was just enough time to cruise through the bay and see fish. They swam under our kayak and bumped their heads on the bottom of it. Our face paint was an added hit and made it fun!
St. John’s under the stars.

5.00Isabelle and Doug were our guides. Doug was filling in from his usual spot on St Thomas. Both were fun and informative and the excursion itself is a must for island guests.
Perfect for all ages.

5.00What a fun experience for all ages. Haley was a wonderful guide, her easy going nature made it so enjoyable for a group of 6. We stayed within the harbor so we felt safe at all times but it still seemed like an adventure. And oh my gosh, the tarpon! So many!
