About this tour

As daylight fades over the Gulf Coast, Bonita Springs Clear Kayak Sunset and Light Tour brings a different glow to the water. Climb into a clear tandem kayak fitted with multicolor LED lights and paddle through the waters around Big Hickory Island, a habitat for local marine life.

The outing begins with an easy 15-minute paddle toward the beach and main channel. Keep watch for shorebirds and dolphins, which can be seen year-round, and manatees from April through October. Your guide leads the search, while the transparent kayak offers a clear view of the water below. Complimentary photos are available by airdrop at the end of the tour.

The experience lasts 120 minutes and uses two-seat kayaks. Each kayak has a 400-pound weight limit, with no more than 225 pounds per seat. Participants must be at least 5 years old, and a moderate level of fitness is recommended. Meet at the public kayak launch in the middle of Big Hickory Island; free parking is available. Bring water and sun protection, and consider insect repellent if bugs are out.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 5.00 from 71 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 Naples
  • 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 8.9. Top 10% in Naples means it ranks in the top 10% of tours in Naples by this score.
