Experience the magic of bioluminescence on our Sunset Starlight Night Tour. Hi-tech LED lights and naturally occurring plankton illuminate the water below while the sunset and stars work their magic above. Our expertly guided tours are a truly unique, once in a lifetime, adventure.
All ability levels are welcome on our Stand Up Paddleboard Bioluminescent Night Tour. We will spend 15 minutes instructing you on the beach in basic SUP techniques, followed by 15 minutes warming up and practicing in the water. After that, our tour departs along the coastline.
We set off into the sunset and wait for darkness to fall. As the night arrives the Hi-tech LED lights under your board will illuminate the waters below. If we are lucky we'll have silverfish leaping from the water and friendly sea creatures making an appearance. The highlight is jumping in to swim with the bioluminescent plankton the thrive in these waters. The more you move the more the plankton will light up and shimmer all around you, it's truly incredible.
Children:
Little Freebirds 4-8 years old are happily welcomed to join our night tours, they must ride with a parent/guardian on the same SUP board or kayak.
Please arrive 15 minutes early to our shop to sign in and prepare yourself for the paddle.
