Private Tour from Ocho Rios Runaway Bay to the Luminous Lagoon

This lagoon, surrounded by mangroves, is home to microscopic organisms that emit phosphorescent light when the water is agitated.  Plan your trip for dusk and then take a boat ride onto the lagoon. As the water is disturbed, you'll see an eerie light illuminating the waters below.  Wave your hands or drag a stick in the water to make the water glow in the dark.  Those who wish can swim in the luminous waters as well.  (The lagoon is about 4-5 feet deep at the center.)  Boats leave from the Glistening Waters Marina, where there is also a restaurant and nightclub.  Visitors can enjoy dinner at the Glistening Waters restaurant while watching the bioluminescent show on the water.
