The Luminous Lagoon in Jamaica is a natural wonder located in Falmouth. It's renowned for its bioluminescent waters, which means the water contains microorganisms that emit light when agitated. This creates a mesmerizing glow, especially at night. It's a popular attraction for tourists who want to experience this unique natural phenomenon.
The glowing effect of the lagoon is due to microorganisms known as dinoflagellates that light up when touched. They are known to glow and thrive in shallow, warm water. This is one of the reasons this particular spot in Jamaica is one of the only places in the world where they can be found. The consistently warm climate of Jamaica is said to be the reason the waters in this area glow brighter than the three other places in the world where this natural phenomenon can be experienced.
As part of this adventure, you can simply admire the views from a boat or get into the lagoon for a swim.
