    The guide in charge and the photographer worked hard to make sure everyone was taken care of and had a good experience. The pics on line did not truly depict what the waters glow truly looked like so that was disappointing. What bothered me most was that someone on the boat was smoking pot.

    We learned so much about the culture and waters of Jamaica on this tour! We’d recommend going when the water is warm and there is not a full moon to get the full effect of the glowing bay!

    My family and I had an amazing time our driver Scottie was awesome. We were a family of 18 and the service was impeccable. We were picked up promptly at our designated pick up time, Scotty made sure we got the best tour possible. Luminous lagoon was such a sight to see a evening we will all remember. Thank you so much for your wonderful service.

    This tour was exactly as advertised. The bioluminescence you see while swimming in the lagoon is like no other. It’s very hard to capture on camera, but it was the experience of a lifetime. The water is warm with cold spots and the colors from the microorganisms is just insane to see in person. The tour is short, only about 30-35 min, but so so worth it! Highly highly recommend going. It’s one of only 4 places in the world where you can see and experience this phenomenon!

    Your tour guide will meet you in the lobby of your hotel in Ocho Rios. From there you will be taken on a trip to the magnificent and very rare gem that is the Luminous Lagoon. The Luminous Lagoon is a very rare, so rare that this natural glistening water is only found in only four countries in the world - Indonesia, Bahamas, Puerto Rico and Jamaica. The Luminous Lagoon holds the record of been the brightest of the four. In 1964, John Hopkins visited Jamaica and did some studies in the lagoon which he discovered that the water contains phosphorus, small microorganisms that get their energy from the sunlight and then when the water is disturbed, by something like a paddle or a hand, they illuminate. The Martha Brae River also flows into the lagoon which assist in maintaining the perfect water temperature and other conditions. As soon as it gets dark your boat's captain will be ready to take you out in a boat to see this natural wonder. Make sure to take you swimsuits because there is a brief stop for you to take a swim. After the boat ride you will travel back to your hotel in Ocho Rios.1+
