Comb Jelly Bioluminescence Kayak Tour

Overview
In the cooler Florida months, bioluminescent Comb Jellies congregate in the protected waters of the Indian River Lagoon. Living in the most bio-diverse estuary in North America, Comb Jellies are clear, glob-like creatures that, despite their name, do not sting! So as you paddle the calm waters laced with mangroves and palm trees, you can catch and hold these gentle glowing creatures. They're right at your fingertips while having a safe, awe-inspiring kayak adventure with those who share your enthusiasm for new and unique experiences.

In addition to the stars, the myriad of protected wildlife around you, and the Comb Jelly’s bioluminescence, their “ribs” are lined with cilia that they use to propel themselves, so when you cast a flashlight on them just right, they’ll also refract a dynamic rainbow-y light show! They’re right at your fingertips while having a safe, awe-inspiring kayak adventure with those who share your enthusiasm for unique experiences.

This was an amazing experience. On the phone for hooking the lady that helped us was so helpful and very friendly. I felt like I was chatting with a friend, everything was smooth and easy. The tour was hands down worth it. The kids all loved it! That is hard for all 4 of ours to love something at the same time. They had such a great time. The tour guides Harrison and Kevin were above and beyond. They made the experience a memorable one for my kids. Anthony was not so pleasant to be around, he was more worried about the time and getting back instead and felt like he was trying to rush the experience but thankfully my family had an awesome night. We are local and I personally can't believe that I had no clue that this was right in our backyard. Will definitely be doing this again 🖤

The most spectacular night! It began with observing the NEOWISE comet, we were then welcomed by Brandy & Harrison our guides who helped us into our clear kayaks (perfect for viewing the glow). They were both very friendly & knowledgeable about the truly amazing bioluminescence, jellies, mullet, blue heron, planets & stars. We were even encouraged to catch the jellies (I did w/ my hands). The mullet fish would dart around & as the site describes it's a kin to movies "The Life of Pi" & "Avatar" without CGI, simply nature at its best. By far the most memorable night ever. You must see with your own eyes. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!
