    Trip highlight

    The lighted sunset kayak tour with Paddle Naples was something to experience! Watching the sunset over the water and paddling in illuminated kayaks created a unique and unforgettable atmosphere. Our guide, Nick, was outstanding. He was very informative and shared information about the local marine life, wildlife, and ecosystem throughout the tour. He was very etheuastic which added an extra touch to the experience and made it both fun and educational. Nick was friendly and professional. If you're visiting area and looking for an adventure, I highly recommend this tour. It was a trip highlight.

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for the awesome review! I love it when our customer say our sunset/glow tour was the highlight of their trip. Glad you enjoyed this unique experience with our wonderful guide Nick! Thank you so much for the five star review and the recommendation on this platform.

    Adventurous Sunset Cruise with Nick!

    Nick was an awesome guide and we loved the experience. We learned so much about all the living creatures; flying and in the water. Nick was very knowledgeable and accommodating. He took great pictures and shared them so we didn’t have to bother taking our phones. Very fun and interesting sunset cruise.

    Response from the operator: Thx so much for the great review. We are happy to hear you enjoyed the sunset/glow tour with Nick. We appreciate you choosing us for your kayaking adventure!

    Don’t Miss This Adventure!

    My husband and I did the Clear Kayak Sunset & Light Tour with Paddle Naples. We met up with the tour guide, Nick. The first priority was a safety review, including legal info like you cannot keep shells with a live animal. (Makes sense.) We launched in a two person CLEAR Kayak! I had never seen one before, but it allowed us the see everything in the water below us. We went quite a distance through branching waterways. Nick was on a paddle board guiding us through the right way. We pulled up on a beach and got out to explore the area. Nick was so outstanding in pointing out different shells. He told us about the birds and animals in the area. He pointed out several birds, ospreys and frigate birds, as they flew overhead. His knowledge of the environment was truly impressive! He was so friendly and answered the questions everyone in our small group had. He found shells typical of the area that he shared with us. (No living creature in the shell.) The sunset that night was spectacular! Nick also took pics along the way that he transferred to us at the end. The trip back was so special as there were LED lights in the bottom of the kayak. This was the best experience of our trip!

    Response from the operator: Thanks so much, Gayle for the awesome review! So glad to hear you enjoyed our sunset/glow tour with Nick. It really is a fun experience in the clear kayaks with the colored lights. Can see us again if you’re ever back down in our area.

    CLEAR Kayak Sunset & Light Tour - Bonita Springs / Ft Myers Beach: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Naples.

    How much does CLEAR Kayak Sunset & Light Tour - Bonita Springs / Ft Myers Beach cost?

    +

    Prices start at $79 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Naples usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does CLEAR Kayak Sunset & Light Tour - Bonita Springs / Ft Myers Beach take?

    +

    Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Naples is not rushed.

    Is CLEAR Kayak Sunset & Light Tour - Bonita Springs / Ft Myers Beach worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 77 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 68 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Naples, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule CLEAR Kayak Sunset & Light Tour - Bonita Springs / Ft Myers Beach?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is CLEAR Kayak Sunset & Light Tour - Bonita Springs / Ft Myers Beach suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book CLEAR Kayak Sunset & Light Tour - Bonita Springs / Ft Myers Beach?

    +

    Around 24 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Naples can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Naples and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does CLEAR Kayak Sunset & Light Tour - Bonita Springs / Ft Myers Beach start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Naples within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Naples?

    +

    Naples is the launch point for Everglades airboat rides and Ten Thousand Islands boat tours, along with shelling trips, sunset sails off the pier and small-group food walks downtown. On Outty we rank every Naples experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Marco Island and Naples Pedal or Paddle Kayak Tour, Mangrove Tunnels & Mudflats Kayak Tour - Local Biologist Guides, Manatees and Mangrove Tunnels Small Group Kayak Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Naples?

    +

    November to April, the dry season with the best wildlife viewing. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Naples?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
