Starting at the end of May, enjoy a bioluminescent tour allowing kayakers to view glowing fish underwater as they swim and as you paddle. The beautiful natural glide of the water will illuminate the marine wildlife and the clear kayaks will lend themselves for the perfect viewing method. These tours are seasonal, and end in October, so guests interested in this tour should book in advance and follow the moon phases for the darkest nights, to see the most bioluminescent marine life. Because these tours launch from Merritt Island Wildlife Refuge in Titusville, large manatees and dolphins may frequent the excursion experience as well, so keep an eye out!
