My friends and I had such a great time. This is my second time doing the bioluminescence tour. Both times I have enjoyed it so much. The tour guides, last time Zoey, this time Jackson, were both delights. We were able to see both the phytoplankton and the comb jellies this time. The beauty of creation never ceases to amaze me. Of you like nature, you will love it.
Why clear bottom kayaks? Our continued commitment to maintaining safety within our immersive experiences has led us to these technologically advanced kayaks, a finely crafted and mesmerizing new model of kayak. The Innovex material is not glass, but a highly durable plastic composite, like the overhead cock pits of fighter jets. The clear-bottom kayak does not simply lay a window panel under you, but rather a fully-formed inlay of Innovex allows water (and so bioluminescence) to rise around you, preserving the full experience without compromising paddler safety.

Went as a party of 4 and it was an amazing experience. The stars and Milky Way were the most visible I’ve ever personally seen and we got to see some comb jellies along the way. We missed dinoflagellate season, but that just gives us an excuse to come again.
Jorge was a great tour guide and I felt safe even as a first time kayaker. He explained the stars, Kennedy Space Center, the cause of the bioluminescence, and so much more. He was very knowledgeable and easy to talk to.
PSA: BRING SANDALS OR WATER SHOES!!! Most of our party made the rookie mistake of not packing any and we definitely paid for it.

Very expensive, wet life preservers, no bathrooms, basically just kayaking in the dark, way overpriced activity for not seeing much of anything.

Crystal was such a nice guide and she went the extra mile(s) for us. She was new in this spot so she had went out early to scope out the area (she is in one of my photos). We had the benefit of seeing the sunset which was gorgeous. Because it was so early and there was quite a bit of light pollution we didn’t see a ton of bioluminescence but we did see some and it was amazing. Crystal did everything she could by taking us all over and around mangroves to try to find some - and we did. But it was so beautiful out in the water at night that it was still worth the trip!!! Our group was very small which was delightful. The only thing to be aware of is that the clear kayaks are not nimble crafts and do not maneuver like a standard kayak does. You will get used to it but they consider them “bathtubs in the water” and that is a very apt description. With that said it’s really neat seeing the bioluminiscent creatures under the boat!!! It was a great time and we are really pleased we went. Do not forget the big spray though!!!

We had a great time. The tour lasted about 2 hours. Jackson was outlr guide and he was very knowledgeable. It was late in the season for the bioluminescents but the comb jelly fish were everywhere. We saw dolphins, possibly a manatee, an Osprey and tons of fish jumping. The stars were bright and the water was calm. Overall it was a great way to spend the night. Bring bug spray...
