Overview

Get to kayak through Puerto Mosquito (Mosquito Bay), the world's brightest bioluminescent bay, where you can explore eco-consciously. A night adventure where not only will you enjoy the glowing waters, but a sky full of stars, and the experience of kayaking at night time. We call this tour the perfect trifecta. Swimming is not allowed, but be prepared to get wet.
