From golden hour
to green glow.
As the sun fades, your clear kayak comes alive beneath you. Glide across calm back bay waters on a guided nighttime adventure designed for everyone, no experience needed.
Push off while there is still gold on the water.
The first launch goes out before the color leaves. You paddle the calm side of the pass as the sky burns down behind Perdido Key, easy the whole way, no experience needed.
The last band of color.
The color is still fading off the water, oranges and pinks and purples, not gone yet. The bay goes quiet underneath it, the calmest it gets all day, and the tour starts to feel like it belongs to you.
Then it goes full dark, and the water lights up.
Once it does, the green off the LEDs cuts straight through the clear hull, and you can see down to the sand and whatever moves across it. This is the one people come back for.

What the hour looks like.
Every tour runs the same way, whether it is your first time in a kayak or your fiftieth.
Clear kayak, green water
Your kayak is see-through, and the water under it glows green all tour. In the dark you watch the bottom slide by beneath your feet.
Calm, protected water
Most nights the bay is calm and easy. On nights the current is up it asks a little more of you, but your guide sets the pace and the route the whole way.
No experience needed
Never held a paddle? Neither had most of our guests. Your guide leads the whole hour and keeps it easy.
