Unique, fun experience - Oh. My. Gosh. This was such a fun experience! The LED lights are attached to the front of the kayak and they hang below the kayak in the water. It lights up the whole area and we had a front row seat to the marine life of the area. Our guide was knowledgeable, competent, and friendly. The water was calm. We also saw a green heron and a bunch of pelicans in the trees. We also saw raccoons scurrying along the shore.

We only had an evening of free time while we were here and were thrilled to discover this—felt like we had actually done something other than the “business” we came for.
