The Glowing Boat Adventure In Texas You Didn’t Know You Needed In Your Life

Paddle SMTX offers a glow-in-the-dark paddle boarding experience on the San Marcos River with underwater LED lights.

Who remembers playing with glow sticks as a kid? While we might have outgrown them by now, there’s a much cooler adult version here in Texas. Paddle SMTX offers a glow-in-the-dark paddle boarding adventure that lets you experience a classic water activity in an entirely new light (pun intended).

Paddle down the San Marcos River on a special board equipped with underwater LED lights. There are seven different colors to choose from, so everyone can sport their favorite!

Tours are held every night and last about one hour. A minimum of four people is required, so tell all your friends!

Don't know how to paddle board? No worries; the first 30 minutes consist of guided instruction. Set off for some solo exploration once you're a pro, perhaps braving the rapids at Rio Vista Park.

Paddle SMTX is located at 602 N Interstate 35, San Marcos, Texas 78666. The cost is $36 per person, but a $5 discount is being offered until the end of April 2019.

For more information, head to Paddle SMTX's website or Facebook page.
