Clear Kayak Sunset Tour - Cocoa Beach

Brian gave us a fantastic tour of Bird Island. He was a delightful guide who expertly identified the many bird species and explained their behaviors. Watching a flock of flamingoes fly over our heads was the highlight of the tour. I highly recommend Brian and Florida Adventurer.

A must do! Brian was a great guide! Saw comb jellies and plankton, starry sky and wildlife! We could see the Artemus on the launch pad at Kennedy space center! If you haven’t seen this amazing natural wonder, put it on your bucket list!

We had an fantastic kayaking experience with Bryan. He was very knowledgeable but didn't talk the entire team which my husband and I both appreciated. We were able to observe manatees and dolphins in their natural habitat, an experience neither of us will forget anytime soon.

This was the best thing my husband and I have done so far it was a new experience and was definitely worth it. Thank you to the team who went above and beyond to make this memorable for us. Shout out to Javier and the three musketeers! Highly recommend! Don’t be afraid to try new things!

Terence and Javier were great guides. Got to see Comb jellies, and a gator! Guides were informative on the area and wildlife.

Taking a bioluminescence tour wasn’t the top priority when we made plans for visiting Cocoa Beach, but it wound up being the most memorable part of the entire trip. We arrived and met our guide for the night, Leo, and his sign-in table by lamplight. We were handed mildly damp life vests with little safety lights attached, and each given a paddle. They went over some basic techniques on land, we paired up to assign kayaks, and we went directly down to the water. The staff carried our kayaks for us and held them still while we stepped through the mud and into the clear boats, one pair at a time. Getting onto the water was like sailing through a void: pitch black and nearly silent. Once our guide was with us in the water, he briefly explained the type of phytoplankton that makes this glowing phenomenon. It turns out that these unique conditions, the temperature and salinity of water right where we were, was just right for these little guys. This is not an experience you can get just anywhere. The biology is spectacular, it felt like they weren’t from earth. We were trying to get pictures of how alien this whole thing looked, especially the comb jellies we caught with our hands. As bright as they were to our eyes, it was too dark out for us to get anything good with our phones. Leo himself took a picture with his own phone, using long exposure settings that gave us a brilliant image to keep. In traveling, one of my primary goals is to gain experiences I can’t get anywhere else, and this bioluminescence tour is at the top of my list. I’m so glad I didn’t miss it.

Javier was the best. He took his time explaining and ensuring we saw a bit of everything. He is very knowledgeable. We had a great experience.
