Overview

With A Paddle in Paradise, you’ll enjoy one of the most authentic and intimate bioluminescent kayak and paddle board tours in Florida. Unlike large outfitters that pack 25+ people into one group, we keep tours small—around 12 guests, with a 15-person max—offering a peaceful, personalized experience and better views of the glowing water. We are close to Cocoa Beach and Orlando.

Each tour is locally guided by the owner, giving you a laid-back, guest-first vibe where you're treated like a friend, not a number. Paddle under the stars through the Indian River Lagoon, one of the only places in the world where bioluminescent dinoflagellates and comb jellies light up the water.

We're the only tour in the area to include professional photos and signature jellyfish portraits with every booking—no upsells, just magical memories captured. Whether you're kayaking or paddle boarding, this is a truly unique Central Florida bioluminescence tour you won’t find anywhere else.

Discover Florida’s only bioluminescent lagoon on a peaceful, star-lit paddle tour with "A Paddle in Paradise Guided Eco Tours". Just a short drive from Orlando and Cocoa Beach, this small-group experience lets you witness one of nature’s most mesmerizing phenomena—bioluminescence—as the water lights up around you with every paddle stroke.

Led by a passionate local guide, you’ll glide through the Indian River Lagoon, one of the only places in the world where both dinoflagellates and bioluminescent comb jellies can be seen.

Seasonal Bioluminescence Highlights:
✨ May–October: Paddle through glowing blue trails created by billions of bioluminescent dinoflagellates
✨ November–April: Encounter glowing comb jellies, plus other nocturnal wildlife like stingrays, puffer fish, and horseshoe crabs, illuminated with NOQUA lighting systems

Choose your vessel—stand-up paddleboard (SUP) or a stable Kayak Mod—and enjoy a relaxed, 1 hour and 45-minute journey in a small group (12 guests on average, max 15).
