This incredible Auckland bioluminescence tour is peaceful and breathtaking, all at the same time. At sunset, you will gather for a welcome and experienced guides will give a briefing of the bioluminescence tour. Your guides will equip you with suitable life jackets and lead the way to the launch area for the kayaks. They provide help entering the kayaks and giving instructions to those that do not have kayaking experience. Everyone gets to do the tour in their own kayak or a tandem kayak.

It’s like going on a cozy family tour. You stop along the way, where guides explain more about the magical glowing water and the marine life in the bay. Paddling around in a kayak you are virtually floating in the bioluminescence, you trigger the marine light-show with your actions. From the kayak, you can reach into the water and let your hand light up and give the appearance of an Avatar-like character. Enjoy being part of a small intimate group of kayakers, in an area with very little light pollution, because the darker it is, the better you see the glowing sparks in the water.
