Paddle a clear, LED-lit tandem kayak beneath the stars on a guided 90-minute tour along the Texas coast.
About this tour
See the Texas coast glow beneath you on a Port O'Connor glowing kayak tour in Bar Room Bay. In a clear tandem kayak, underwater LEDs turn the water into a window on the world below, while the night sky sets the scene overhead.
Choose from seven light colors and settings, then paddle with your guide through one of the coastal locations. Along the way, look for wildlife and landmarks as your guide shares local history and interesting facts. Your kayak, paddle, life jackets, flashlights, flare kit, and emergency whistle are provided, so you can focus on the water and the view.
This 90-minute Port O'Connor glowing kayak tour is for adults 18 and older. Weight limits apply, and participants should be physically fit. Meet at the GlowRow trailer on 16th Street, and leave bug spray at home. Book your evening on the water and experience the coast from a luminous new perspective.

How this score is calculated
This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.00 from 4 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.
How the score works and rating distribution in Houston
- Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
- Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
- Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
- The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 6.8.
