Free Cancellation – 24 hour notice Best Price GuaranteeDescription
The main highlight of this trip is getting a chance to see the water shine with bioluminescence (hello little planktons!) and to see a night sky filled with stars.
What makes this mad adventure super-special is that you’ll get the chance to experience island solitude and bliss away from the more bustling tourist places. As adventurous as it is, it is also a very calming and soothing experience.
This trip is an off-beat experience and can seem uncomfortable in the beginning if you’ve never Kayaked before. But, the instructors go the extra mile to make you comfortable at all times and after about 15-20 mins, the entire experience starts to feel familiar and easy.

For footwear, choose flip-flops, water sandals or paddling shoes. Anything that is waterproof and light will work.
