What you can expect

  • Paddle through Paquera Bay with a local guide and experience a spectacular sunset and beautiful bioluminescence on an evening kayaking tour. Enjoy refreshments of water and fruits after your trip.

    Head to the meeting point to meet your kayaking guide. Then, set off from Playa Relleno in Paquera and paddle through the bay, discovering the area's islands as you go.

    As the sun sets, stop to take in the colourful spectacle, then enjoy the silence as darkness falls. When night has set in, prepare to marvel as plankton begin to glow in the dark in one of the only bays in the world that experiences bioluminescence throughout the year.

    Watch this natural phenomenon for more than 1 hour, and be enchanted by how fish light up their path like shooting stars in the water. See the water light up as you move your hands or paddles through it before paddling back to the starting point at the end of the tour.
