Aloha Adventure Seekers!! BIOLUMINESCENT SEASON HAS BEGUN!!
At Cocoa Kayaking, we’re passionate about bringing you unforgettable experiences on Florida’s beautiful waterways! Bioluminescence Dinoflagellates, that magical natural phenomenon, has a specific season along the Space Coast of Florida. Typically, it dazzles our waters during the warmer months, from as early as May through as late as October. Our Bioluminescent Comb Jellies, while we refer to them as jellyfish, are not technically jellyfish and don’t sting! These prehistoric comb jellies have been around for over 500 million years. By using their glowing bioluminescent nerves, they protect themselves by keeping other predators away. These amazing jellies are typically around the months of October through March, but can sometimes hang out through the summer bioluminescent season if their cold currents allow. During this magical time, the waters come alive with the mesmerizing glow of bioluminescent comb jellies and dinoflagellate organisms, creating a breathtaking spectacle. We understand that many of you have been eagerly anticipating our bioluminescence tours, and we appreciate your enthusiasm!! We want to provide you with an update on the status of our bioluminescence tours for this summer season!!
