Kayak the biobay in Fajardo and Vieques

There is no comparison to Kayaking in the Biobay on a clear night!

BIOBAY KAYAK TOUR COMPANIES

The Bioluminescent Bays of Fajardo and Vieques have over 500 hundred thousand to one million microscopic dinoflagellates per gallon of water. They light up when they are touched! Imagine a lagoon full of Tinkerbell's fairy dust! Pure magic, the experience is actually indescribable. Legend of the Golden Heron.

If time and inclination does not permit you a trip to Vieques the biobay in Fajardo is almost as nice, it is a truly amazing experience. You are presently allowed to swim in the biobay in Viequea but not in Fajardo's biobay.
