Bioluminescent Kayaking in Titusville: Clear Kayaks

Watch the water light up around your paddle in a clear kayak

Bioluminescent kayaking in Titusville puts you in a clear kayak at night to see organisms glow as they move through the water: fish below you, your paddle as you maneuver, the natural flow itself. The paddle lasts about 90 minutes with a live guide, basic paddle instruction, and all equipment included. Children from age 3 are welcome. The kayaks are wheelchair accessible.

The experience

You arrive and check in right away to maximize time on the water. After basic paddle instruction and a briefing on what you'll see, you push off into the waterway in a 100% clear kayak. The transparency is what sets this apart. As organisms in the water move, they emit light, creating a glowing effect visible both around you and directly beneath the hull. Fish glow as they swim past; your paddle glows as you stroke; the natural current illuminates the organisms themselves. This bioluminescence occurs in only six places on Earth, and Titusville is one of them.

The paddle runs about an hour and a half depending on group speed and any wildlife encounters along the way. A live guide leads the group, so you're not navigating alone. All fees, taxes and kayak use are included in the price.

Operated by Get Up And Go Kayaking

Is this one for you?You paddle the kayak yourself in a shared group, so this suits anyone who wants to operate the equipment and see the glow up close rather than watch from a boat. The clear hull is what makes the bioluminescence visible directly beneath you. A standard kayak would hide that view.

The clear kayak lets you see this glow directly below you, not just around the edges.
