Kayaking in Bahìa Rica!

We went kayaking in a bay close to us..... at night?!
Did you know that is actually very hard to see your fellow kayakers and where you are going? Luckily, we didn't go very far. The main reason we went out was to see this.....
Phosphorescent plankton. When you put your hand or paddle in the water it lights up like a bunch of fairy lights. When fish jump it lights up in ripples. You know when you skip a rock it makes ripples around each skip? Well, imagine that but all lit up. It was very hard to photograph but it was really neat to see it.  If you ever in Costa Rica, Bahìa Rica Adventures is a good place to go to see it. It's amazing.
