It was a great location...
It was a great location to watch the sunset, explore a little island and a very cool experience to see the bioluminescence.

Great tour!
We sailed the boat. Eddy took us to a place where it was very dark and you could see the bioluminescence very well. Those who wanted could even swim which had a very high Disney content! Like swimming in sparkling magic water! Really very nice! I can recommend it to everyone!

Great Experience.
This was a great experience. It was supposed to be a kayak trip, but weather issues changed it to a boat trip. The guide was very knowledgeable and made the experience fun. The drive to the location is short from the ferry, but the road is not the greatest. You will need an SUV.

Eddy was awesome and the...
Eddy was awesome and the bioluminescence was amazing. We opted to switch to a boat ride instead of the kayaks (he had both). While the kayaks would have been quite, we had a better time on the boats because we could cover more distance. Eddy gave us a great time. He spoke great English and explain some of the science behind. Had a great time and highly recommend. Also, get there a few minutes early for a beautiful sunset.

Bioluminescence in action
Eddy is knowledgeable about bioluminescence and explains very well. Our group has had a choice of kayak vs boat, and we have chosen boat. We have seen bioluminescence in action. Best if you the boat tour combine with a swim in the sea. You get what you pay for. Eddy is also a funny tour guide.

Eddie Bioluminescent Tour is the best…don’t trust this magical experience to anyone else…GO WITH EDDIE!
Eddie was so knowledgeable and made our boat ride an experience to remember. I have never seen something so beautiful and fanciful as glowing water. We even swam in it. It was so magical to see our bodies light up like stars in a dark sky. I don’t think you would have the same fascinating and personal experience that we had with Eddie with a regular tour group. He made it extra special and a memory that I will never forget. It truly was a once in a lifetime moment. You truly exceeded all my expectations and more. Thank you Eddie…you are truly the best!

Top! You can go without fear
Very cool! When we went the bioluminescence was very strong and visible, it was excellent. The biologist explained every detail of how it worked. Do not be afraid to go and not see the bioluminescence, explained that even when it is with the moon can go to some darker points where it would be possible to see, they give a way! We had the pleasure of doing the tour with Eddy himself, rolled up a cool chat!
