Lake Ivanhoe, just north of downtown Orlando, offers an enchanting escape with the Date Night Neon Glow Clear Kayak or Paddleboard & Champagne experience. This two-hour guided adventure transforms the vibrant city skyline into a sparkling backdrop while you glide across the water in a crystal-clear vessel, illuminated from beneath by vivid LED lights. Known locally as one of Orlando’s best-kept secrets, Lake Ivanhoe is a spring-fed lake free of alligators, ensuring a safe and serene paddle that’s perfect for couples or anyone looking to add some sparkle to their evening.
This tour distinguishes itself by combining stunning water views with a unique light show. Guests can choose from a stable, clear single kayak, a 2-person kayak, or a super stable clear paddleboard — the latter being a guest favorite and an ideal way to learn SUP fundamentals in flatwater conditions. From the moment you arrive at Epic Paddle Adventures, located at 1600 North Orange Avenue, Orlando, your experience is carefully curated for comfort and fun. You’ll be fitted with all necessary safety equipment and equipped with waterproof dry bags for your valuables.
As the sun sets, the LED lighting system beneath your kayak or paddleboard lights up the water, revealing shimmering reflections and aquatic life like fish, turtles, and local birds. Your guide will keep the energy upbeat with curated tunes via Bluetooth or you can bring your own playlist. The highlight of the night: a toast with complimentary sparkling wine served right on the water, adding a sparkle to an already romantic and visually captivating evening.
Post-paddle, guests are encouraged to explore Lake Ivanhoe Village—an increasingly popular neighborhood with charming restaurants and bars, perfect for extending the night. The whole experience is designed to celebrate Orlando’s natural and urban juxtaposition, offering a distinct adventure unlike typical city outings.
With an emphasis on safety, comfort, and memorable moments, Epic Paddle Adventures excels at welcoming paddlers of all skill levels. Whether you're a first-timer or seasoned paddler looking for a new twist on a night out, this glowing voyage on Lake Ivanhoe is a standout way to experience the City Beautiful’s water playground.
