About this experience

The Luminous Lagoon Cruise-is home to microscopic organisms that emit a phosporecescent 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 will see an eerie light ruminating below, fun for both children and adults. 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 glowing water.

The lagoon is about 4-5 feet deep at the center. We will pick you up from your hotel or villa and transport you to the Glistening Waters Marina, where your boat will leave. There is also restaurant with magnificent views and nightclub.
