Experience a magical guided nature adventure after dark! Our tours feature personal care and small groups from our private launch into a quiet region of the lagoon... Safe and easy, free from the crowds of other companies. Bioluminescent sparking comb jellies are in the water year round creating a truly phenomenal effect as you explore through the Banana River Lagoon Nature Preserve. Summer months of June through September are truly amazing with bioluminescent phytoplankton called Dinoflagellates. They set the water on fire lighting up everything that moves, including you if you choose to go of a swim.... It's an experience like no other! Choose Paddle Board or Kayak at launch.. Paddle and kayak equipment, expert instruction and parking are included. We depart from the amazing Brevard Veteran's Memorial Park & Museum.

Would highly recommend! Even though it was a little chillier it was still very worth it. I’m writing this review 9 months after the adventure and I remember vividly how amazing it was to meet these cool little creatures. Plus the sunset was amazing and our guide made it memorable

Andrew was our guide and he was SO insightful. We had a BLAST! This was an incredible experience! The jellyfish were sooooooo cool. The minnows lit up in the water, the algae was like glitter! My 9yr old and 15yr old can’t wait to do this again!

We read reviews and really gravitated towards this company and I am SO GLAD we did. Our tour guide Andrew exceeded our expectations. Could not have asked for a better time. Our 4 and 9 year old had a blast! Definitely 10/10 time!!

This was an amazing experience. Andrew and J.P. were our tour guides and we had such a great time. The bioluminescent adventure is definitely something worth seeing. You could see the water light up when the fish swam! My husband and I went for our anniversary and it was phenomenal. Great memories and a wonderful date night. Highly recommend them.

Our tour was amazing last night! My son got to see glowing dolphins chasing jumping fish. My daughter and I were a bit further back and just saw the glowing splashes because a fish had jumped into our kayak between my back and the seat and I had to use my net to push him out😂😂. She said that right there was worth the money. The guides took their time each place we were at and were active during the tours finding us the best places to see the bioluminescence and dolphins. If we come back to Cocoa Beach we will definitely do this again! Make sure to book through the Sobe site so you can use their discount code!

This was absolutely amazing! We went for the sunset/night kayaking to see the bioluminescence and it far exceeded our expectations. It was simply magical! There were 2 guides (I'm terrible with names), but they were both super friendly and patient, took great pictures for us, and knew all the right spots to hit to see vivid glow. They had little nets in each of the kayaks to play with in the water and really light it up too. I highly recommend this company and excursion, you won't regret it!

Such a great night out on the water! Andrew, our guide, was knowledgeable, friendly and engaging. He knew all the right spots to take us and we were lucky enough to see manatees, dolphins and a little of the bioluminescence. SUPER COOL! Highly recommend!

When asked, our 13 year old granddaughter wanted an "experience" for her birthday so we thought this might be a good one. Our granddaughter was completely "wowed" by the entire tour. She loved kayaking. The sunset was beautiful. Encountering dolphins close up seemed surreal. This was her introduction to bioluminescence and the interaction was amazing.

Excellent guide with lots of knowledge and fantastic experience. It was worth the price and was easy to book. I appreciated the pictures the guide took and the info on other places to visit.
