 San Juan Puerto Rico

KAYAK THE BIOLUMINESCENT BAY
$75 Per Person

The famous experience of gliding and swimming among the phosphorescent micro-organisms found in the sheltered mangrove bays is an amazing adventure. You will enjoy even the ride as you travel to one of the few areas in the world that boasts of this special effect.

When you arrive, you will get a brief orientation in the use and safety of your kayak. These are comfortable double-seater kayaks and easy to maneuver. You will have a kayak lifejacket as well to build your confidence!

The perfect scenario for this trip is a moonless night. The enclosed mangrove bays in Puerto Rico have narrow canals that limit the exchange of water with the open sea which allows the dinoflagellates to breed and concentrate. As a moonless night may not occur on your evening in San Juan, we are able to tent the mangroves in certain areas, allowing you to enter the water and create the chemical reaction in these microscopic bodies that produce the flash. You will able to take a dip for a truly unforgettable experience.

Everyone will be well taken care of during this adventure, allowing you to enjoy every minute. Refreshments, such as typical cookies and candy, chips, coke and diet coke as well as water, will be served on your return.
