Opt for darker colors and clothes that dry quickly.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Bring Minimal Electronics:<\/strong> Bright screens and flashlights can interfere with your night vision and take away from the glow.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Use Bug Spray (Before Arrival):<\/strong> Apply insect repellent ahead of time to help keep mosquitoes at bay while avoiding contamination of the water.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Book Early:<\/strong> Tours fill up fast, especially during new moon phases when the glow is brightest.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Stay Hydrated and Eat Light:<\/strong> It&rsquo;s a gentle paddle, but it&rsquo;s still a good idea to hydrate and avoid heavy meals right before your tour.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Guests don&rsquo;t need any kayaking experience &mdash; Calypso&rsquo;s knowledgeable guides offer a full safety briefing and paddling instructions before every tour. All kayaks, paddles, and life jackets are provided.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;We take care of everything from safety to storytelling,&#8221; Galloway added. &#8220;All you have to do is show up ready for wonder.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Reserve Your Tour Before the Season Sells Out<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Bioluminescent kayaking season begins in May and runs through October, with peak brightness typically between June and September.
