Overview
The Glistening Waters Luminous Lagoon Tour in Falmouth, Jamaica, is a magical nighttime adventure where visitors experience one of the world’s brightest natural phenomena — bioluminescence. At the heart of this tour is the glowing lagoon, where millions of tiny microorganisms emit a stunning blue light when disturbed by movement in the water.
