Details
The Luminous Lagoon Jamaica tours otherwise known as Glistening Waters Jamaica tours is one of the most beautiful natural attractions in the world. An ordinary lagoon by day, it is transformed into a luminescent pool of activity by night. This amazing phenomenon is caused by millions of micro-organisms called dinoflagellates, which produce a glowing effect when disturbed or stimulated.
This beautiful effect can be seen at night only, while swimming, during the boat ride on the water, or as fish swim by. There are only 4 such locations in the world, and it is said that the Luminous Lagoon in Jamaica is the largest and most beautiful of them all.
No visit to Jamaica is complete without a trip to this phosphorescent natural attraction, so be sure to add our Luminous Lagoon tour Jamaica to your itinerary.
