More About the Bioluminescence Kayak Tour

Discover one of Costa Rica’s most fascinating natural phenomena on this bioluminescence kayak tour in Tambor Bay. This experience seamlessly combines a peaceful sunset paddle with the incredible spectacle of glowing waters after dark.

The tour begins in the late afternoon as we set out in kayaks to explore the calm bay. As we paddle, we can enjoy the breathtaking sunset, with the sky reflecting vibrant colors on the water. Moreover, this is a great time to appreciate the scenery and observe coastal wildlife.

As night falls, we reach an area rich in bioluminescent plankton. These tiny organisms emit a blue-green glow when disturbed. Consequently, every paddle stroke and movement in the water creates a glowing effect, making it seem like the ocean is alive. The darker the night, the more intense the glow, which makes this a truly unique experience.

After spending time enjoying the bioluminescence, we gradually paddle back to shore. Meanwhile, the peaceful atmosphere and sounds of nature create a relaxing end to the adventure.

This tour is suitable for all skill levels, including beginners. Since the waters of Tambor Bay are usually calm, our experienced guides provide clear instructions to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience.
