Биолюминесцентный ночной тур на байдарках по заповеднику дикой природы острова Мерритт

Обзор
Есть только несколько мест в мире, где вы можете увидеть это удивительное представление морской жизни, освещающей воды своим потусторонним неоновым свечением. Это один опыт Флориды, который вы не хотите пропустить! Что делает это удивительным, так это то, что охраняемые водно-болотные угодья вокруг того места, где мы запускаем наши каяки, практически не имеют светового загрязнения. Это обеспечивает удивительную видимость биолюминесценции.

I have wanted to do this tour for the past several years but the timing was never right. My husband, 11 year old son and I were finally able to get away for a little staycation and booked the Bioluminescence Night Kayaking Tour. Communication was excellent the entire time. We called the day of the tour to confirm arrival time, and were told that someone would be answering phones in the office up to the time of the tours just in case we got turned around with directions and needed help. We also received an email with very specific coordinates and written driving directions to the Haulover Canal launch point. We did arrive about an hour early, and BK Adventure was already there and set up, waiting for their parties to arrive. We chatted with the guides a bit, and enjoyed the views and a sweet raccoon who was trying to sneak some food. There are very aggressive swarms of insects on shore while you wait. We sprayed quite liberally with bug spray (something we were advised to bring) and only walked away with one or two bites. Once we launched, the bug were a non-issue. We were also advised to use the bathroom in town, but by the time we got to the launch, nature called again. There are portapotties near the launch, and they were fine for use (With the understanding that they are portapotties in the middle of a nature preserve. Yes, i checked thoroughly for snakes and critters before locking the door). One of the parties in our tour group was running a little late, but it didn't hold us up too badly. Ironically, they also bailed on the trip almost immediately after launching their kayak. We had chosen the clear kayaks, and I confess, I would probably not make the same choice next time, just because of personal skill level. The clear kayaks handle more like canoes and require quite a bit more balance. Riders are tandem, and so I shared with my 11 year old. He was a little nervous about the darkness and the potential of wildlife, and while I was fine, I am far better at maneuvering a kayak than a canoe and would have been able to enjoy the trip a little more. The clear kayaks in a daylight tour would be fabulous. After getting geared up in our life jackets and receiving a quick operations lesson from tour guides Audrey and Megan, we launched the kayaks. It was choppy getting into the river, but so peaceful once the water calmed down. The night was overcast and the stars were so bright. We got to see the wonderful dinoflagellates in the water, and it was truly incredible to behold the glow around the boats, the paddles and the jumping fish. I wish I had been able to capture more photos, but it was stunning. There were a few alligators out and I heard another member of our tour say they saw a baby boar at some point. My son and I got hung up in a current so it took us a little bit to catch up with the group, but Megan stayed with us and even helped tow us at one point. Having that bit of help put my son at ease, and once he saw that no matter what, we were in good hands, really helped him relax. By the time the tour was over, he was asking if we could come back at another time and do it again. Audrey and Megan were very professional and knowledgeable. The boats and equipment were clean and well maintained. Communication was excellent. All three of us had a great time and loved getting to see something so unique and beautiful. We will be back for the comb jellies in December, and hopefully one of the daytime manatee or dolphin tours!

Thank you so much for taking the time to write up this fantastic review! The clear kayaks can sometimes feel a little bit different than the regular kayaks, but getting the opportunity to see the bio glow under your boat is always worth it in our opinion! Overall, we're so happy that you and your family enjoyed your tour and your guides! We can't wait to have you back with us soon!

We did the bio tour tonight at the Kelly Park location with tour guide Dillon. It was amazing and I would recommend that anyone visiting the area make time to do it. It was an incredible experience that we’ll never forget. Dillon was very friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable. BK Adventure supplies everything you need and have quality equipment, so wasn’t difficult to maneuver through the bay. The comb jellies are fascinating and the bio looks like something out of a dream. We even got to see mullet fish jumping all around our kayak. It was so much fun and so peaceful out on the water. I could have stayed out there all night. Highly recommend the tour, and BK Adventures!

Did this tour with my wife and 16 year old daughter. All of us have kayaked many times but not on a larger body of water and never at night. The directions were great for where to meet, and the guides quickly made you feel comfortable with what was going to happen. We had a group of about 25 on our tour, which was larger than I expected. Once on the water it was a bit chaotic with a large group, and a number of times we had to stop to wait on everyone to catch up. They did a really good job keeping track of all the kayaks, and I felt safe the whole time though. It was really cool to be out on the water in the dark, and you definitely had the feel of being somewhere with limited access. I realize that the guides can't control the bioluminescence to be experienced on any given night, and on this night there really wasn't a whole lot to see. You could agitate the water, but the effect was barely noticeable. We did get to paddle with some jumping fish and hold a very unique jelly fish the guide pulled out of the water. I would have liked to have been able to hear the guides better and think I may have missed some of the things they were describing. Even so, it was worth doing even without the visuals I hoped for. The only real disappointment was that I didn't get to see much of my wife and daughter while we kayaked. This was an experience we wanted to share. They mostly use two seat kayaks and pair up most who are an odd number. The young woman I was paired with was fantastic and a great compliment to how I wanted to kayak (hopefully she felt I was an okay partner too!). So if we had to pair up with strangers, I chose really well. I could see this being a real negative if I hadn't been so fortunate. They do have single seat kayaks, but they indicated there was not enough of them. It seems they should make sure this is known up front, but I found nothing on the site stating you would be paired up and assumed I would get a single. This would have allowed me to stay next to my family much more easily. Again though, it was a great time and thank you to my partner Megan who paddled with me. Final note...the bugs weren't bad for us, but definitely bring a towel and change of clothes. We got more wet than anticipated.
