After the hike, natural waterslides, and rope swing they drove us to get lunch and from there we switched buses to do the bioluminescent kayaking. The moon was so bright it was hard to see the water light up, that is out of their control. However, they did make it possible to see the bioluminescent by covering all our kayaks with big tarps and we were able to experience it that way. Great full day trip experience a MUST to do…”
