Bioluminescence Kayak Tour in Poulsbo Washington United States

Booking Notes

#Safety Guidelines
There will be a lead guide at the front, a sweep guide at the rear and depending on group size, additional guides that roam the group.

We will be paddling at night. Each kayak will have a boat light and each participant will have a head lamp. **Guide's boat lights are ***RED*** while participant's boat lights are ***BLUE or GREEN***.** Participant's boat lights will be turned off after about 20 minutes to enhance everyone's viewing experience. **The guide's boat lights will never be turned off, so they are always visible and easy to locate.** If a participant has any trouble they are instructed to turn their head lamp on so we can locate them quickly. Each participant also have a whistle on their life jacket for signaling. Depending on group size there will be a minimum of 2 guides and a max of 4. Sound caries on the water and on Port Gamble Bay it is easy to hear the group and assess any problems.

Participants are instructed to stay close to the shore during the tour for best viewing. The tour goes out with the shore on your right and comes back with the shore on your left. Participants are instructed to NOT paddle in to the center of the bay and just paddle next to shore. It is dark during the paddle but there is always some ambient light so you can always see where you are going.

The group will spread out during the paddle which enhances viewing for all. We encourage participants to paddle in close to shore either in single file or in small groups. When grouping up please keep your distance from other boats.
