We read that the bio bay was losing it's "luster", but we went anyway. We read that the new moon was the best time to see the luminescence, so we were pumped when our only free night was at the perfect moon stage.
We drove in from Old San Juan....our 1 hour drive time turned into 2.5 hours. Beware if...

Hey there -- I'm glad you could join us for a nice tour of the bio bay, despite the traffic and construction on the drive. Thank you for sharing the love for our friendly staff and flexible customer service, although I'm sorry that the overall experience of the bioluminescence was lackluster this time. I hope you will consider giving us...

The tour guys are great but for what they do it is too expensive. If they know that the trip that day is not going to show the organisims why still do it? Paying $40 for paddling from one to another is a rip! Do not recommend or check before to make sure you are going to see something put...

Hey there, Raul -- although I'm glad to hear you enjoyed our guides, I'm sorry if you felt the experience was not worth the price. We try to track the visibility of the bioluminescence beforehand and offer our customers to opt out if it is not visible. I apologize if it wasn't as visible this time as you expected. I...

2 reviews The kayak paddle was a good workout, but they should inform you if the microorganism are dying and not have us go out. We expected to see more of these microorganism work, but that wasn't the case. Who knows if it will ever get back to it's glory.

Hi there, Javier -- Thank you for sharing the love for our tours! Although I'm glad you enjoyed your kayaking workout with us, we're sorry the bio glow was a bit of a let down this time. There was recently an influx of seaweed in the waters which diminished the glow -- hopefully it will clear up soon. However if...

We did the early run and really enjoyed paddling out in the day time and watching the sun set. Coming back in was really hard in the dark. The mangrove trees are tough to get through with no light. While you are out in the bay it is AMAZING to look up at the stars and just see how many...

This trip was an average trip. The only reason I say that is because you literally kayak for a while and you end up at the lagoon and spent only 10-15 minutes there. We also had to be under a tarp in order to see the organisms. The moon and stars were the best part of the trip. It is...

Hi there, Elizabeth -- although I'm glad you enjoyed the beautiful night scenery, I'm sorry to hear the tour was a bit less impressive to you. We do our best to give an informative, experiential tour of the bio bay, unfortunately sometimes Mother Nature doesn't provide the expected biolumninescence. I hope you will consider giving us another shot someday to...

I went to PR & figured I HAD to do this! I only questioned whether or not i'd be able to see the glow since the bay is still recovering...but I figured that I had to at least try.
The tour is about 2 hours long. We went @ 6:45 pm and it was just starting to get a bit...

We took the 9:00 Kayak trip to the bioluminescent bay. They have double kayaks and go fairly slow. The channel to the bay is dark and narrow with branches overhead that must be avoided. Many of the guests are inexperienced kayakers so it is important to relax. The bay is interesting and worth seeing.

I wholeheartedly recommend Yokahu. These guys were fabulous. Also, if you are not good at kayaking, you should go at the earlier time slot because kayaking through the channel of mangroves by moonlight is difficult. They will give you a tarp to hold over your kayaks once you get to the bay if it's too light out.
Regardless of which...

My family of four took the 9pm kayak trip. There was a full moon which gave plenty of light (some prior comments mentioned pitch blackness but we did it encounter this issue).
Positives: professionally run. Great guides. Really enjoyed the kayaking to the bay through the channel. Quite fun.
Negatives: bioluminescence is almost non-existent due to an increase of oxygen...

Thank you so much for sharing the love for our full moon kayak tour and our wonderful, professional guides. It means a lot to hear you and your family enjoyed yourselves, despite the lack of bio glow. Unfortunately, mother nature has not been on our side in that department lately -- I apologize for that. I'm also sorry to hear...

This was without a doubt the worst experience I had during my trip in Puerto Rico. The staff was rude (Erwin specifically), the bay was underwhelming, and the entire experience was a disaster as the guides relied on members of the group to pass along instructions.
The other kayaking companies seemed to have their acts together, so I'd still recommend...

We take our customer service very seriously, and we always want you to feel taken care of with helpful, attentive guides. I apologize if we came off as anything less than professional with you. I'll be keeping this top of mind moving forward,...
