All guests must arrive 25 minutes before their scheduled tour time, no matter which tour they book ,this rule applies to all tour times .We have a 10-minute check-in window:)
*Our tours run on a strict schedule so we can reach the bioluminescent bay on time and avoid delaying other guests/ tours . Therefore We must depart at the end of the check-in window to stay on schedule. Arriving on time helps us get everyone to the bay smoothly and enjoy the full experience
Itinerary:
Once everyone is checked in, we transport everyone from the meeting location to the bioluminescent bay!!
The drive takes about 10–15 minutes it’s a bumpy road — but we go slow, and it’s all part of the adventure ✨🚐✨
Once we arrive we get everyone ready with life jackets and paddles .We’ll start things off with a quick safety briefing and kayaking rundown—then it’s time to launch into the magic! 🌊🛶✨️
You’ll spend one hour on the water, with our fully transparent kayaks, you won’t just see the glow—you’ll be floating inside it! Explore Mosquito Bay and discover why it’s the brightest bioluminescent bay on Earth. Every stroke, every splash, every turn ,lights up the night. Its an unforgettable adventure you’ll be talking about long after you leave.
What to expect / keep in mind
* You will walk through shallow water to get into the kayaks
*you get a little wet (it’s worth it, we promise!)
* you will be provided with life jackets ,paddles and 2 guides
* you will be operating your own kayak so yes you do have to paddle :)
👕 What to Wear/ Bring
*Clothes you don’t mind getting wet (shorts and a t-shirt is reccomended)
*Shoes that are easy to slip on and off (you’ll remove them before entering the kayak)
*A light jacket or towel (optional)
*you can bring your phone just be careful with it (best way to capture pictures is with night mode, no flash!)

🦟INSECT REPPELENTS
*Protecting our Biobay (Bug Spray Policy)
Mosquito Bay is a protected natural treasure, and we work hard to keep it glowing ✨
🚫therefore please do not use bug spray or sunscreen, the chemicals found in insect repellents /sunscreen pollute the water and can ruin our clear kayaks.
Despite the name, Mosquito Bay is not full of mosquitoes — you’ll learn the real story behind the name during the tour 😉
If you need to use insect repellent, make sure its 100% natural and DEET-free.
Thank you for helping us protect this incredible ecosystem 💜
🌙MOON PHASES & BEST VISIBILITY
✨️Bioluminescence is a natural phenomenon that is always present in the bay, but how bright it appears depends greatly on natural light conditions, especially the moon phase.
Why the Moon Matters🌕
The darker the night, the brighter the bioluminescence appears to our eyes✨Moonlight, even though beautiful, it adds light to the sky ,which effects visibility .
A simple way to picture it: it’s like a glow stick in a room with the lights on. The glow stick is still glowing, but it’s meant to glow in the dark, so doesn’t stand out until you turn the lights off. The same thing happens with the light from the moon and how it effects how we perceive bioluminescence
🌗 Before vs. After the Full Moon
Not all moon phases affect visibility the same way
• Week before the full moon:
The moon rises earlier in the evening, meaning there is more moonlight during tour hours. This can make the glow less visible
• Week After the full moon:
The moon rises later at night, allowing for darker skies during our tours. This creates better viewing conditions and a more vibrant bioluminescent experience.
⭐ Best Time to Visit
For the best visibility, we recommend booking:
* Day of the new moon!
* 10 days surrounding the new moon
* The week after the full moon on the early tour times
🌕We are CLOSED for three days during the full moon:
• The day before the full moon
• The day of the full moon
• The day after the full moon
During this time, the moon is very bright and significantly affects visibility. While the bioluminescence is still there, it is harder to see due to the strong moonlight.
