Nerves and Giggles under a Full Moon with a visitor in our Kayak! - Coda was absolutely the best, hands down. He was so patient, great instructor, and it was quite the adventure! The night had some unexpected wind, choppy waters, but his guidance in navigating the ocean was so reassuring. He's a wealth of knowledge and lucky me, I had a needlenose fish hop into our kayak towards the end of the tour causing me to loose concentration as I was trying not to sit on it, brought lots of unexpected laughter and nerves at the same time. Coda sang us a song adverb he found out we were celebrating our 25 year anniversary. Quite the experience for sure, memories to cherish forever!

The coolest experience - We are staying in a condo in Cowpet Bay West (highly recommend!) and stumbled upon the water sports for the Elysian hotel on the beach. I have travelled the world and been to USVI half a dozen times and this is one of the coolest activities I have ever done! It was so gorgeous to leave at sunset and the water was so clear! We saw so many fish and starfish and just had the best time! We had never even kayaked before and it was very easy. Thank you Coda & Chevelle for the best night!

Night Kayaking is Fun & Relaxing - This was a great tour! The guides were all really nice, fun and knowledgeable. They seem to really have fun doing the tours. We saw a lot of sea life. Even if we hadn't seen any sea life the night kayaking is really fun and relaxing. The tour guides took a lot of great pics and videos that they shared with us. Would do this again anytime!

Night Kayaking - We had a great night for illuminated kayaking out of Elysian Resort. Handy for us since we were staying there. Chevelle knew where to find tarpon, starfish and rays. We got to see a very fast Eagle Ray under our kayak! Coda took great pictures, which was tough because there were alot of people on our tour that night. Thank you both! Highly recommend this tour!

Sunset kayak - Our guide was great very informative and fun . Really took the time to point out the sea life in the area. The clear bottom boat was great for viewing. Highly recommended for an affordable trip for family.

Clear Bottom Nighttime kayak tour is a must do! - Our host and guide Chevelle welcomed us warmly, provided operating instructions and life jackets, and we explored the cove for a wonderful peaceful nighttime ride. The clear-bottom kayak and lights provided us with a unique experience to observing the sea life in their environment.
For me, as a frequent cruiser, I loved doing a nighttime excursion when normally we would be back on board a ship.
We saw sea urchins, needle fish, some jelly fish type invertebrates, but not much else due to the week of storms leading up to our ride.
Highly recommend this easy excursion as it wasn’t too challenging - we paddled slowly. Nor was it hot as the sun was set. Finally we didn’t feel afraid even though it was Half Moon. It was gorgeous and peaceful.

Pass, lights out - The guides were very nice but I would never do this again. My husband and I are not very large people but the kayak would not support the 2 of us together. That had him by himself and me with the 5th from another group. Then the light in our kayak went out over and over. We spent time with the guides trying to fix it over and over which took away from our time. Then in the end the light in the back we were able to keep on but not the light where I was sitting. We saw a few tarpon and starfish before it went out but I would never recommend this to anyone. I spent more time looking up at the stars after the light went out than in the water because I couldn't see anything.
