With this tour , you will spend approximately forty five minutes to an hour experiencing the natural phenomenon luminous lagoon .
Witness the glow formed from small microorganism that emit a flash of light when touched.
This marvel is only found four places in the world, however this lagoon is the brightest of them all due to the consistent climate in Jamaica.
The Darker the night the brighter it glows.
Therefore it is best to book this tour on a dark night, rather than when it is full Moon.
(Nb) For best experience reserve your experience for a dark night as we recommend checking a Lunar Calendar for the best dates to book this Excursion.
Please Take along one towel per person and wear water shoes for best experience.

Our driver, Desmond was very friendly and knowledgable. The crew was funny. We got great pictures. Bring bug spray for waiting to go out on the water. There are only five places in the world where this natural phenomena occurs and Jamaica is the only place you can go in the water (or so we were told)

Being able to swim in the water with the glow was wonderful.
I was jaded by having already been to Vieques PR. The dinoflagellate population was not nearly as concentrated here.
Driver, Desmond, was exceptionally informative, helpful, and personable.
Captain Jack Sparrow was a hoot.
You can't really take a pic of this... Just go and experience it.

This was a complete waste of money and time. Very disappointing! The glow was barely visible and only takes place when you splash the water and it disappears almost immediately! Nothing like the advertising pictures show.
The captain was trying to convince everyone that the glow was there and telling them to keeping swimming around the boat to see the glow, but there was nothing at all like the advertised photos. He then made all the excuses under the sun as to why it wasn't like the advertised photos.
They crammed 50 people on the tiny little boat, so it's not a very comfortable journey either. They then had the cheek to ask for money at the end and leave a bucket by the exit for you to tip them.
The only saving grace was the beautiful sunset, as more than. Have the tome is spent waiting for it to get dark. The stars were also, shinning very bright in the night sky while we were out on the boat. The photos do not do it justice.
When we returned to the little bar/restaurant, where the transfer drop you off at, there was an amazing fire show taking place and our lovely driver Desmond allowed us the extra time to watch the show, before dropping us back to our hotel.

The most memorable part for me was seeing the “glow” as we swam in the dark. This was something new and different for me and my family.

I am rating this 5 stars because the driver, servers, and boat captains were all fantastic. Also, the food at the drop off was fantastic.
That said, the actual experience was a let down. We went on an overcast day, so the microbes did not get as charged. It also wasn't an ideal moon phase (new moon is best). Lastly, the swimming off the boat is above some really icky mud/plants so you can't really stand. We did our tour end of January.

Fun evening trip close to the Bahia. Depending on the weather how bright the colors are. They have a nice bar while you wait. You are on the boat about 60-90 minutes.

Khrisann was an amazing guide! She gave us great history of Jamaica and gave recommendations on what we should see including the luminous lagoon. It was a great experience!

The trip from our hotel was smooth and our driver Desmond made sure we arrived safely. He told us about the history of the towns we went through and was attentive to every detail…checking in if we were hot/cold comfortable during the 45 min trip to luminous lagoon. The lagoon was very neat, but if you are planning this take a waterproof cover for your phone so u can get some pictures!

It was okay. Just wish the luminous part was more visible in the lagoon. I wouldn’t participate in this excursion again unfortunately.

This is a must do for anyone visiting Jamaica. It’s such a unique experience and no photos do it justice. We ended up sharing a tour with a family which only added to the experience. The boat crew who bring you out are super fun and add to the experience giving you information about the lagoon and surrounding area and also helped take photos of us in the water and knew some tricks. Our driver Desmond was also great and gave us lots of information about things to do and tips on plans we had made.
