We did a bioluminescence tour on a Sunday night. What a great time. Our guide Travis was very knowledgeable about the area and taught us about the birds, fish, terrain and of course the bio. The start point is remote but well worth the trip. Follow the directions exactly as they send you with your confirmation and you will find... More

What a great way to spend a half day! Our guide was knowledgeable, friendly, experienced and fun! We booked this kayaking tour with little expectations as there were not many reviews and not much on their website. This was worth EVERY penny. The guide went out of her way to make sure we saw manatees. Our group was small and... More

Did the Nighttime Bioluminescent Kayak Tour last year and it was one of the most unique and amazing experiences I have ever done. The Bioluminescence was so bright and prevalent everywhere you looked. There were SWARMS of Mullet (fish) swimming all around us in the little cove we paddled to creating a nighttime light show in the water that defied... More

Friendly efficient phone person. Good instructions to get to landing site. Fun guides. "E" was especially nice & seemed to want to get to know us. This... More

We took the 8:15 pm bioluminescent kayak tour during a "new moon". The meeting place is remote, but directions were right on (may be a bit hard to find in the dark though). Mosquitos were the worst I've experienced, so heed all instruction sabout wearing repellent (and go for the good stuff!) and long sleeves/pants. The staff were laid back,... More

Unfortunately for us, we did not see any bio-luminescent on our night. Nonetheless it was an interesting kayak trip. The guides are nice and attentive, helped us get in and out, but they seem to just talk to the few kayaks who were around them, so for the most time we pretty much were paddling on our own, playing bumper...

My kids went on the bio tour 2 yearsago and could not stop talking about the sparkling blue water and sea life they encountered. I decided this year I would see for myself. I saw lots of stars in the sky and is was a calming trip,but I did not see much bio. The guide told us we could see... More
