About This Activity
Bioluminescent kayaking takes you into a world that seems straight out of a fantasy film. As your paddle breaks the water's surface, millions of microscopic organisms called dinoflagellates emit a blue glow in response to movement, creating trails of light that follow your every stroke. This natural phenomenon occurs in select locations around the world where conditions are just right for these bioluminescent organisms to thrive. Guided by experienced naturalists, you'll venture out after sunset when the waters are at their darkest, maximizing the visibility of this ethereal light show. As you paddle, watch fish dart beneath your kayak leaving glowing trails, see droplets of blue light drip from your paddle, and even run your hands through the water to create your own luminous patterns. The experience combines adventure, science, and pure wonder in a way few other activities can match.
