There used to be one company, but they no longer do the bio bay. But there is one in Vieques that uses glass bottom kayaks. Not at this time in Fajardo.

My sister and brother-in-law went a couple years ago and she said there were definitely operators that had glass-bottom kayaks which would make the experience even better!

Since the last time you can tell the decrease in bioluminescence. There are several groups that will take you there either via boat or Kayak (we did the Kayak tour). Unfortunately we reserved late therefore we ended up going with a group called Eco Tour since the others were full.The main guide was a young kid who wanted to make more jokes than provide useful info., and one of his assistants was rude and very disrespectful to my wife. Terrible experience due to the Eco Tour guides, and due to the incredible amount of people going at the same time. The channel to get there is not that big and you have to be getting out of the way of boats and other kayak tours. Still we love kayaks and the bay even though it is not the same. Make sure you go either on Boat or Kayak with the Marine Biologist guide in another group. AVOID ECO ACTION TOURS- not very professionals.

Although I had been to PR dozens of times I had never been to Bio Bay (Fajardo). It was absolutely magical, a must see! We did not kayak, instead we took a small flat bottom boat. The owner, captain, was extremely pleasant and knowledgeable.The boat takes only about 6 passengers. Although those kayaking seemed to be enjoying themselves, by taking the boat we were dry and stayed out longer, The captain also knew where we should look to find iguanas sleeping in trees and other fascinating creatures. Every part of the excursion was incredible, traveling thru the canal felt like a journey thru the amazon, the iridescence of the sea life,and the beautifully starlit night sky was an experience my child and I will always remember. It is not necessary to book this in advance, we decided last minute. The cost was $45 per person.(worth every penny). Unfortunately photos don't capture the experience since it is at night but you'll have a lifetime of great memories! I just returned from PR with my teenager.

I have been to La Parguera many times, and even though it has been fun to hang out there, I can tell you that looking at "something" in a bucket is not an experience. Laguna Grande was so amazing and Kayaking Puerto Rico such a great service, that kayaking at the bio-bay in Fajardo is the first thing I tell people about when they ask about what to do in Puerto Rico. I had been on a kayak once before, but even if I hadn't, the quick lesson we were given and the great attention by the guys of Kayaking Puerto Rico made it very easy and an enjoyable experience. We felt safe at all times and definitely taken care of. Groups with other companies seemed disorganized and even left people behind!! Our guys were SO nice that they helped them get back to their own groups! Expect to definitely get wet from the waist down at least. Make sure you don't bring any wallets or unnecesary stuff with you. They do have a little box where you can put your car keys and other small items for safeguard, but I had better peace of mind leaving my things in the car (except the car keys of course!). Since the tour is done at nighttime, don't even bring your camera. The glow cannot be photographed and you'll just be worried about getting your camera wet the entire time. At the end, they also take a photo of you coming back to shore... which you can purchase. ABSOLUTELY MUST DO WHILE IN P.R.! Our experience with Kayaking Puerto Rico was excellent last year.
