Full Strawberry Moon Kayak Ecotour
May 16, 2019 @ 7:30 pm - June 18, 2019 @ 9:30 pm
$15 – $55
The June Full Moon is called the Full Strawberry Moon. This Full Moon got its name from the Algonquin tribes who knew it as a signal to gather the ripening fruit of wild strawberries.
Grab a paddle and don’t miss this once a month opportunity to watch the sun set over the Matanzas Basin, while the moon rises to reveal her fabulous full shining light!
The Earth and Moon are ready to change the tide as you paddle in a “glowing” firefly kayak with a Certified Ripple Effect Guide. Swirls of color paint the night as we take you on an excursion into the natural mystery of the estuary. Your senses will come alive as the moonlight twinkles against the darkening water. Encounter wildlife heading out for their nightly hunts, wading birds settling in for the night, fish jumping, and night-sounds aplenty on this one-of-a- kind ecoadventure.
No kayaking experience is necessary and the tour is suitable for ages 10 and up. The cost is $55 for adults and $45 ages 15 and under. This cost includes all top-of-the-line kayaking equipment, full instruction, guide service, and even complimentary passes to Marineland Dolphin Adventures!
Reservations are required so please book online at www.rippleeffectecotours.com or call 904-347-1565.
