Brilliant tour company!!. Everything from booking the tour to completion of tour was amazing experience.
We had a 5yo with us and they made sure to be flexible to fit in his questions and his needs.
The bioluminescence itself was brilliant and We also got a night sky star lesson! Bonus!
The tour was well organized but it was a bright moon night so could see only a bit of bioluminescence under a tarp. Perhaps they should not do tours on bright. But the experience of kayaking in the night was fabulous
I was actually a bit disappointed. Whilst I was lucky enough to enjoy this experience with a very dark moon, you are only actually on the water for about 45 minutes. Out of this, you paddle away from the boat ramp (not much glowing), through the brightly glowing bit for about 5-10 minutes and out the other side, into another not very luminescent area. Then the guide (we had David, who was excellent as a tour guide) spends about 15 minutes talking about the glowing creatures, which was quite interesting, and about 15 minutes about star constellations. This all happens whilst you're drifting back to where you started. So, I felt like I only actually experienced the brightly glowing area for about 10 minutes (most of which you're paddling or looking at the sky) which was quite disappointing. Although star constellation talks are interesting, it's not what I had paid to see. If the talks could happen whilst you are floating in the highly glowing area, I think that would be much better, as you would have more time to actually see the luminescence.
Amazing for the bio bay! Loved the knowledgeable, funny, and kind tour guide team, and appreciated how organized the whole operation was (bus ride, clear kayaks, everything was superb). Truly unforgettable, bucket-list experience.
Also if you just generally need anything for your trip that you forgot to bring (sunscreen, etc.), or if you’re craving some coffee or ice cream, the storefront / main gathering space is a lovely spot :)
Awesome tour! Very good value and very well organized. David was a great tour guide who knew his stuff but kept it fun and entertaining while keeping everyone together. We are excited to do it again. I would recommend doing one of the later tours as the plankton look better the darker it is.
