Pure Island Tours – Light-N-Up LED
Paddle Boarding Tours
Light up the night as you glide across the Indian River
Lagoon on a Pure Island Tours paddleboard featuring our
patent-pending, multi-colored, multi-function LED lighting
system with 16 color options that you control with the
click of a button on your personal remote. Join dolphins,
manatees and ospreys in celebrating the sunset from the
perfect vantage point on your Pure Island SUP, and then
relax with friends and enjoy the light show after the sun
goes down as you paddle back to shore. All tours are
accompanied by an experienced guide, include instruction,
and a short onshore introduction to paddleboarding. Our
unique “Light-N-Up” tours begin daily, approximately 45
minutes prior to sunset. Join us and “Light-N-Up!”
