Bioluminescence Paddles
Duration: 3 Hours
Experience the Wonder of Bioluminescence at Night!
Bioluminescence is the production and emission of light by a living organism. But experiencing it is so much more! It’s pure imagination! It is found throughout marine habitats, and lucky for us, can be found locally in Bellingham Bay from June-September. Our Bioluminescence Paddles often sell out, so reserve your space soon!
