Adding a kayak trip to your bucket list could be kind of boring that is of course unless it is on the tropical U.S. Virgin island of St. Thomas. Hello Bucket/Magic list must add: The worlds first night kayaking tour “Clear Discoveries,” exclusively at the Frenchman’s Reef & Morning Star Marriott Beach Resort.
Blend all the reasons you love kayaking and spin them into a rigged up kayak made out of state of the art polycarbonate materials used for the production of bulletproof glass and fighter jet canopies. The result – a 100% see through kayak, so paddlers can sneak a peak down into the Caribbean Sea.
Four entrepreneur men got together and created Clear Discoveries, un unapologetically self-boosting, “See the Sea Between Your Knees” these kayaks are unlike any you have ever been in. The worlds first and original night kayak tour takes kayaking to an extreme adrenalin pumped level.
The nighttime experience is a kayaking trip of a lifetime. Don’t wrap your hopes up in seeing many fish. Since most fish are not nocturnal the chances of seeing lots of sea life is unlikely at night. But the cool factor out weighs the ability to see fish. In the spirit of trying something new, this takes the cake. You will be gliding in clear kayaks amped up with LED lights. You will see below the water, cruising over rocks and past pirate boats, every once in a while a blue fish will bump up into your boat.
And what is not to love with passionate, enthusiastic studly men leading the tour by paddle board. The men seem to love water and play so much that they decided to make a career out of it. Talk about following your heart. The enthusiasm for this sport is shared in the guides excitement for leading you around the cove.
Cynics stay away from this activity, it is only for the young at heart and outgoing outdoor lovers. Because let’s face it, kayaking is kayaking wether you do it in New Zealand or Portland Oregon, after awhile the motions start to feel the same. But the hunky fellas at Clear Discoveries will help hip up the tried and true kayaking with a dose of cool Caribbean “feel good” attitude.
If seeing fish is on your list then rent the see through kayaks for a magical day light kayak trip. Still on the list of things to do before we die for the oh ahhh factor.

Love it! Adding it to my list of must do’s BFID. Hummm – maybe I should sell my bright red-10′-kayak for the all clear version decked out with night lights. Thanks for adding the great pictures.
How is this a night kayaking tour if it only goes from 6:30 to 8pm? Isn’t sunset at like 9:30 pm during the July month?
