From neon-blue waves to glowing crystal-clear views, find the night tour that speaks to your spirit of discovery.
In the warm summer months, the water teems with tiny organisms called Dinoflagellates. Every stroke of your paddle, the darting of a fish, or the glide of a dolphin creates a trail of electric blue light. It’s an immersive experience often compared to “fairy dust” or underwater fireworks.
During the cooler months, the lagoon fills with Comb Jellies—clear, prehistoric-looking creatures that do not sting. They emit a soft, ethereal glow when touched. These gentle creatures are safe to catch and hold, making it a hands-on adventure for all ages.
Start your journey as the sun dips below the horizon. Watch thousands of birds return to roost at Mullethead Island and look for dolphins and manatees in the golden light. As darkness falls, the bioluminescence begins to sparkle, giving you two incredible experiences in one tour.
For those who want it all. This extended 3-hour tour is designed to showcase the very best of the Merritt Island Wildlife Refuge. We focus on maximizing wildlife sightings—including manatees and dolphins—before transitioning into the bioluminescent magic of the night.
Why choose between a stunning Florida sunset and the magic of bioluminescence when you can have both? This tour is designed for those who want to witness the full transition of the Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge from day to night, all while seated in our premier clear-bottom kayaks.
See the magic right beneath your feet! Our clear-bottom kayaks offer a window into the glowing depths. Watch as “shooting stars” of light rush under your seat and fish illuminate the water like glowing torpedoes. This is the most immersive way to experience the lagoon.
