Don’t Miss Out On Their Bioluminescence

Pro Tip: You don’t have to travel to Puerto Rico or some other exotic place to see the phenomena of a bioluminescent bay. The marvel exists right in the state of Florida!

During the hot summer months in the Indian River Lagoon, near Titusville on Florida’s east coast, the presence of single-celled organisms called dinoflagellates in the waters pushes them to glow blueish when you paddle a kayak during after-dark tours with A Day Away Kayak Tours.

It’s nothing short of mystical because the streaking mullets look like underwater rockets in the bioluminescent waters that shimmer with flashes all around you.

  1. Opa resturant in Orlando near the convention center , usually requires reservations, but the food is so great, be a mistake to miss.

    We came here the first time in August 1970. WE came back in December then relocated the following year.The two best choices in my life were marrying my wife and having a family and moving to Florida! I am retired now and have been in heaven on earth most of my life!

  3. Siesta public beach on Siesta Key Sarasota is a great place to go,
    but stay away during Spring Breaks and major holidays. The traffic
    comes to a complete halt on Midnight Pass Rd and in Siesta Village.
    The Gulf water is a little too warm from June thru Sept. but very nice
    the rest of the year. The white sand on Crescent Beach is like nothing I’ve seen before. There are so many great places to see
    and restaurants to eat at in the Sarasota area you will surely enjoy
    your stay.

    My husband and I wintered in the Florida Keys for several years until we got too old to drive down and back from Minnesota. Make sure you go south and spend some time going through the Keys. What a beautiful trip that is!
