Had a little surprise, my daughter was paddling in front of me and flung a pufferfish right into the kayak and it landed right between my legs! Being dark and not being able to see what it was yes I almost went straight into the water, Alex and my daughter found quite comedy in it while I was having a slight panic attack haha once we got over the fear of being on the water after dark we were able to relax and enjoy the sounds of nature, all the animals that live amongst the forest around us and get to know our guide a bit. Was definitely an experience that’s for sure! Never a dull moment with us! Lol

  Did a Bio-luminescence kayak trip one September night. I thought it was going to be lame and did not believe the pics seen on line. I do not have any... read more pics but it was incredible. Every movement of water lit up bright blue. The fish swimming around lit the water up, paddling, and the movement of the kayak lit it all up. The blue lights are not only on the surface but thru the depth of the water. If you could ever get the chance you have to do it. I only wish my wife was kayaking with me that night.
