Experience Overview:

Bioluminescent Clear Kayak Tour On Merritt Island

Kayaking allows you to feel as though you?re one with the water and all the life within it!

During the warm summer months the waters of Florida's Indian River and Mosquito Lagoon come alive with single-celled microorganisms called dinoflagellates. Every movement in the water produces a cold-light called bioluminescence! From the swirl of your paddle or the trail of a speeding school of mullet (which look like hundreds of blue-green underwater bottle rockets), to the ghostly glow of a slow moving manatee or sting ray, every movement is illumined. No need to travel to Puerto Rico to see this phenomenon. It's right here in sunny Central Florida. You will be on the water for 90 minutes.

Organized by

Florida-Adventurer

Whether it is your 1st time on the water or your hundredth, the adventure is never the same twice - there is always something new to discover in the outdoors of our great state of Florida. Our owners grew up surfing, kayaking, boating and fishing on the waterways of central Florida. It was always a dream to make the water their office. So it made sense to continue their relationship with this amazing ecosystem, to do their part to be vigilant in their duties to the environment, and to educate the visitors of this great state with candor and comedy.
