This tour focuses specifically on comb jelly bioluminescence, a rare phenomenon different from Florida’s well-known dinoflagellate glow. Instead of constant sparkle, comb jellies emit soft rainbow flashes as they move — creating a subtle, ethereal light show beneath your clear kayak.
Launching from calm, protected waters in Merritt Island, this experience is ideal for both beginners and experienced paddlers. Transparent kayaks paired with carefully balanced LED lighting allow you to clearly observe the jellies and marine life below without overpowering the natural darkness of the lagoon.
Your guide shares the science behind bioluminescence and the ecology of the Indian River Lagoon. While wildlife sightings are never guaranteed, guests may encounter fish, rays, dolphins, or manatees in this diverse estuary.
With small groups and a peaceful setting, this immersive eco-tour offers a refined way to witness one of Florida’s most fascinating nighttime natural events.
