Unforgettable Experience
We had a wonderful experience on this tour. We were given clear directions on the day of the tour of where to meet later that evening. They were very organized when we arrived and got everyone set and ready to go. The guides were awesome ensuring not only that we were all safe, but that we were all comfortable and having a good time. We were very lucky as we had unknowingly booked our tour on a new moon, so the darkness combined with the abundance of bioluminescence on that particular night made for an experience that we will never forget.

Most Magical Day of My Life
nothing short of amazing!! 100/10 stars! we got lucky and saw a lot. we did end up going in a bigger group (12 and sometimes 24 when combined with the other group) but there were plenty of instructors who were really helpful and always checked up on you. shoutout to Sarah for being an amazing one!
From Bioluminescence Kayak Tour – Canoe & Kayak Adventures
Hi Emily, thanks for the kind words. Sarah will be pleased to hear :) We agree - last night was amazing, especially seeing the waves of bio crash onto the rocks from a distance. All customers were very lively and chatty which made it even better.
