Bioluminescence Paddle Tours - Sunset and Stargazing

Overview

8:00pm and 8:30pm Sunset & bioluminescence Tour
While the sun is setting, our friendly guides lead you on an amazing evening clear kayak or paddle board adventure on the Indian River Lagoon. We'll also hike around Horseshoe Crab Island!

Search for horseshoe crabs and other marine life such as dolphins and manatees as the sun sets.

After sunset, we'll paddle into the night as dinoflagellates bioluminescence illuminates the water and fish below us.

10:30pm and 11:00pm Bioluminescence & Stargazing
At this launch time, it is very dark and the stars shine bright against the night sky as the bioluminescence glows below us. We recommend downloading a star gazing app and to view the constellations above.

**Tours may be delayed up to 1 hour to allow weather to pass**

When dinoflagellate bioluminescence season ends, comb jelly bioluminescence season begins! Then, you will also be given high powered multi-colored LED lighting systems for your vessel to further enjoy the glow.

What To Expect

Titusville

Our guides will take you on a beautiful night time adventure into Bioluminescence on the Indian River Lagoon. You will learn to kayak or paddleboard with our instructors as the sun sets and creates a beautiful palette of pinks, oranges and blues. We paddle out to horseshoe crab island and watch the sun set on another day in paradise. Explore the island with your group and meet new friends. Take this time to walk on the sand bar to look for wildlife such as horseshoe crabs and bioluminescent comb jellies. Cup the water in your hands and watch the brilliant stars appear! Take a short swim in the bioluminescence and make your own "glow angels". After the sun sets, the magic of bioluminescence begins. It's hard to describe the beautiful colors of bioluminescence. The fish glow an otherworldly blue as they swim below your paddleboard or kayak. It's an incredibly magical experience. This experience is 2 hours from start to finish with 1.5 hours of guaranteed time on the water.

I took this tour with my grandson, my best friend and her son. The tour with Jennifer, Savannah, and Bryce was outstanding. They were very friendly, Jennifer introduced herself and told us about her experience with the tour. Savannah ensured that my grandson and I didn’t drift away lol. He got tired paddling on the way out. She stayed with us and made sure we made it out to the group. Bryce gave us instructions on what to do while we were in a kayak. He even kept us entertained while he gave us a thorough briefing on what to expect. That really helped me navigate since when we got going we were drifting off in the wrong direction. I was able to turn the kayak around to get back on track. I would definitely do this again, and the tour was worth every dime spent! Thanks to all! v/r Michelle Richardson
