About the Activity
Bioluminescence is one of nature's most enchanting phenomena - the production and emission of light by living organisms. In the pristine waters surrounding the Andaman Islands, millions of microscopic plankton called dinoflagellates create a magical display of blue-green light when disturbed.
This natural light show occurs when these tiny organisms are agitated by movement in the water. Each organism emits a flash of light as a defense mechanism, and when millions of them light up together, the result is a breathtaking display that looks like stars have fallen into the ocean.

Kayaking is similar to trekking. We keep moving at a constant pace and take breaks from time to time. Moving in water is more efficient than land. To cover the same distance, kayaking takes less energy than trekking. It is an excellent workout for the upper body.
Absolutely, you will be provided a life jacket while kayaking. In the past, many participants who didn’t know how to swim have kayaked with us & enjoyed it thoroughly!
Kayaking is perfectly safe if done with reputed vendors who have the experience and a deep understanding of the sea. AT OFF TRACK KAYAKING, we only work with operators who have the right credentials & certifications. We test out the experience ourselves before deciding on who we’ll work with.
