You should know, if you're planning a night kayaking outing to Havelock Island, that this is not just any kayak paddle on water; this is an experience beyond anything else. As the sun dips down and the darkness prevails over Havelock, the calm sea turns into a glowing canvas. Every frame that you paddle causes the bioluminescent waters to swell with light. The sea teems with the soft, glowing, surreal stars beneath the water's surface - little marine illuminances that are together in total symphony with hope and amazement.
It's quiet, tranquil, and almost cosmic as your senses help you connect deeply with your surroundings. In this experience with local guides, you will be paddling in open water and through mangroves, all while stars light up the night sky, the only sound is the splash of your paddle and nature’s occasional rustle. It is an amazing way to experience Havelock Island's natural beauty whether you are an explorer or a nature enthusiast.
Night Kayaking on Havelock Island gained attraction among travellers. Eco-oriented adventurers were seeking more than just a tour (sightseeing experiences), they were seeking to get immersed into unique adventures to beautiful places. Something fun & exciting has now been turned into a highly-objectified rarity shared interpersonally between some locals and some adventurous individuals seeking just thrill. The adventure seekers started gaining more traction from eco-tourists and ideal travellers alike when the phenomenon of natural bioluminescence started to be featured in the area.
Elephant Beach is a well-known spot on Havelock Island for kayak fans. There's day and night kayaking amongst unbelievable nature's beauty. During the day, kayakers will be surrounded by amazing coral reefs and beautiful pristine flora in unbelievable clear water. Night kayaking during the new moon will allow you to view the amazing bioluminescent phenomena of bioluminescent plankton where the water glows with the swish of the paddles and the movements of the kayak. It is an experience like no other.
While kayaking at Elephant Beach you may want to pre-book activities to ensure that you can do what you want to do especially during high tourist season. Some different tourists reported they booked at the beach, but it may lead to some things being wanted.
By pre-booking, you can know your schedule with certainty, and be relaxed. Whether you are an avid kayaker or have never gone kayaking before, elephant beach will provide you with a thrilling experience that mixes both the natural beauty and joy of being out on the water.
Make sure you take advantage of the chance to paddle, wander and marvel at these as yet unspoiled waters and unique ecosystems in Havelock Island.
Kayaking at night on Havelock Island is a whole different activity. Each of the tour operators will have their own age restrictions and pricing. Most set a minimum age of 10 years; however, there may also be tour operators who will have kids at less than 10 years (4 or 8 years) as long as they are paired by an instructor. Overall maximum age is about 50 years, but again this depends on the health and fitness level of the kayaker. The average price for a night kayaking experience is approx. ₹2,500 to ₹3,500 per person, although it depends on the nature of your travel package and inclusions.
NOTE- THESE ARE AVERAGE COSTS AND IT MIGHT DIFFER AS PER PACKAGE.
Remember, the best chance of spotting bioluminescence (glowing in the water) would be during the new moon phase (usually the moonless time of year between November and February), but just keep in mind that bioluminescence is a natural occurrence and cannot be insured on every trip. However, regardless of whether it is your first ever time in a kayak or you are an advanced paddler, night kayaking in Havelock Island is a magical experience that will stay with you forever as you effortlessly paddle across glowing waters.
