Twilight Sea Canoe is operated by Phuket Andaman Twilight Co., Ltd., based in Phuket, Thailand. Our official website is https://twilightseacanoe.com. For direct tour enquiries, call +66 84 053 3456 or email info@twilightseacanoe.com. The Evening Glow tour departs from Ao Por Pier; our office in Paklok is a separate location.

Evening Glow is Twilight Sea Canoe’s guided day-and-evening tour from Phuket to Phang Nga Bay. The planned route includes Panak Island sea caves, Hong Island lagoons, James Bond Island, Thai lunch and dinner, sunset on the bay, and a night canoe paddle to look for bioluminescent plankton. Allow about 10–11 hours including transfers. Routes and timings can change with tides and weather; bioluminescence is not guaranteed.

Evening Glow operates year-round, subject to weather and sea conditions. Bioluminescence is a natural phenomenon: its visibility varies with water conditions and ambient light, and a particular display cannot be guaranteed. The night paddle takes place after dark.

Allow a full day and evening, including hotel transfers. Total travel time depends on your hotel location, traffic, weather and tides. Check your booking confirmation for your arrangements; the package itinerary shows the planned sequence of activities.

No previous canoeing experience is required. A professional paddler handles the canoe, and the team gives a safety briefing before the activities. Check the participation requirements and contact us before booking if you have health or accessibility concerns.

The tour is guided in English. If you need support in another language, contact our team before booking to confirm what is available for your date.
