If you enjoy kayaking, you will love the bioluminescence Kayak Tour with Fin Expeditions. The tour began at 9 PM and ended just after 10:30 PM. We were able to watch our oars light up as we paddled through the waters. The sunny summer days with warm waters were perfect conditions for the algae and comb jellyfish to glow. We were also able to see planets Jupiter, Mars and a meteor.

Malcolm was the perfect guide directing us to the best locations through the mangroves, educating us on bioluminescence, and sharing fishing tips for our future trips to the 1000 Islands in Cocoa Beach. We’ve kayaked in various locations around the world, but never experienced anything as beautiful as this tour.

Thank you for the 5 star review. So glad you had a beautiful tour. The bioluminescence is amazing and glad to hear that the comb jelly were out for you to see. Our guides really enjoy educating our guest, I'm glad you had a lot to take away with this tour. I hope to book you again!

We loved our guide Jordyn!! She was amazing! She was one of the most personable guides I’ve ever had. Even though we weren’t able to see dolphins, she kept the trip really interesting. She provided us with some really awesome information and knew what she was talking about. I would definitely recommend Fin Expeditions for anyone who is looking for a good time!! Thank you Jordyn :))

Fin Expeditions Kayak tour was incredible! We decided last minute to go kayaking and wanted to take a sunset tour in the middle of the week. Fin expeditions was able to squeeze us into a tour, only 6 people on our tour, and get us on the water 45mins later. Jeremy, our guide, was extremely knowledgeable and my husband and I learned so much (even though we’re both from Florida). He was even able to tell us the name of a bird we see at our house to report back to our toddler at home who wasn’t on the trip! I never felt rushed during the tour, he took his time, and “read” the group. Also took pictures for us with his phone so we didn’t accidentally loose or damage ours. We plan on coming back up this way over the summer to do the bioluminescent tour with Fins Expedition that’s how much we love the company. Thank you guys again so much!!! (And if you need local food recommendations Jeremys your guy. For the after the tour appetite you worked up).

It was a wonderful and peaceful kayaking trip with our tour guide Jordyn.
The view is so beautiful with tunnels surrounded by mangroves and clear water.
Even if we were not able to see mammals this time, Jordyn recommended a few other places for us to spot the dolphins and manatees. It was even more fun as I had a very nice and friendly family together in the trip. It was always a bonus meeting and talking with nice people during the trip.
What’s more, Jordyn is not only knowledgeable introducing us all the interesting things we saw along the journey, she is also humorous, fun and amazing at taking PHOTOS!!!! Extra bonus!!
I loved the trip and would like to do it again next time if I was visiting.
Jordyn will also share a few good restaurants in town that you have to try - I tried a few of them. Very nice!! Extra extra bonus!!!

Had a great time on the sunset cruise. Malcom was a great guide saw cool birds, and even 2 dolphins,went through the mangrove tunnels and watched the sunset. Very relaxing. I would recommend a tour with these guys. This is my second time and enjoyed both.

Took my mom and my 3 kids on this tour and it was amazing! We had some sketchy weather roll in the day of our tour and Fin Expeditions was awesome about communicating with us to change our tour to a better day and time. Because my mom is 79 and my 9 yo was her 'pilot', our guides tethered their kayak to mine so I could tow them. Worked perfectly! The tour couldn't have been better! If you do this tour, definitely go heavy on the bug spray. They're no joke out on the water! I highly recommend!

Great experience!! Would recommend to anyone, whether your experienced r or not! Found the trip both educational and interesting but not over the top or too much etc.

Great guide:lovely, funny, knowledgeable and stayed at the pace of the group not leaving anyone behind. Took some great pictures of the group so there's no need to worry about that! (you can take your phone and there are waterproof bags if you want to risk it however)

Went at mid-day, after an evening storm the night before. A little windy - only when - crossing the islands but the weather was good that way, didn't get too hot!

Saw a horseshoe crab, osprey, blue and grey heron and pelicans as well as a bottle nosed dolphin!!! I think the storm the night before made the water a little merky than normal, but clear and shallow. (I think I saw a sting Ray too, but can't be sure!)

The malgroves are incredible. No doubt about that! Fantastic experience. Would go back as much as possible and will be recommending!

Thank you for such a great afternoon! 😁

Our experience was amazing. Our guide was fantastic, very knowledgeable and personable. We lucked out on the weather as well. It was a very calm night with no breeze which was perfect for seeing bioluminescent activity. From catching jellyfish to spotting dolphins inches away from our kayaks this was an experience I would recommend to anyone!

Thanks for the awesome review! The weather seems to almost always be perfect for the bioluminescence tour, it just makes the experience so relaxing. Sounds like you had a great experience with the dolphins being so close! Looking forward to booking you again for another amazing educational experience.
