About This Tour
This activity is unique because it combines the magic of nature with an unforgettable sensory experience Bioluminescence on the move – You don’t just watch it, you live it. Every row and every brush with water ignites an ethereal blue glow, as if the ocean responds to your presence. Silent, immersive experience – Without engine noise, you’ll only hear the sound of water, night birds and sea breezes. This allows you to connect with nature in a deep and serene way. Respect for marine life – Motor boats can disturb the ecosystem with noise and pollution. Rowing, we minimize our impact. A sense of adventure and achievement – Sliding with your own effort on water makes you part of the experience, not just a spectator. It’s a journey that feels authentic and rewarding. This is not just an excursion, it is a pure encounter with the ocean, with its secret light and serene rhythm. Here, you and nature become one.
