Desmond Transportation... - Desmond Transportation Services provided pick up and drop off to the tour site. Desmond was excellent, timely and knowledgeable. He gave a lots of facts about the Jamaica and different sites along the way. The boat was entertaining, one of my favorite tours in Jamaica so far. The guide was hilarious and made the experience one to remember.

Awesome experience! - The trip was great! The water lit up, the swimming was perfect, the captain was professional and hilarious, I felt safe and had fun. Our driver, Desmond, for Coopa Tours, was the best, very friendly and full of information about the island. Highly recommend!

Magical memories - We did the glistening water trip and it was fantastic the crew were great fun and caring and made us feel very safe. The star ⭐️ was Desmond from Coopa Tours who facilitated the tour for us. He was so informative and charming it was like getting a 2 4 1 tour as he gave us so much history on the drive to the luminous lake and lots of information about this beautiful island. We will return to our hotel and recommend Desmond and Coopa tours to everyone. Thank you for an amazing lifetime memory.

Amazing, Once in a Lifetime Experience - This activity was amazing! Our transfer from Ocho Rios to the location was great, our driver was so nice and offered up so much history about the areas we were traveling to. Once we arrived, there was a wait about 1 hour and a half as we waited for the sun to go down. The dock is also a restaurant w/ bar that features a DJ so we had a time while we waited. Once aboard our captains were great and hilarious while also keeping our safety a priority. No, you won’t be able to use a camera to catch the glow but the lifelong memories that were made have no comparison. It was BEAUTIFUL! It lit up so good, just an amazing experience. 10/10 would do again

Nice to see the luminescence but involved a lot of waiting around - It was interesting to see the luminescence, but we were experiencing a full moon so it wasn’t that dark. Unfortunately, we had to wait a long time at the bar before the fire show and then boat tour took place. The kids were getting a bit bored waiting..

Amazingly Different - The guide spoke very impressionable and made it fun as well as memorable! He has a positive and loving personality. He is trusting, caring and has a great team concept.

Luminous Lagoon - 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)

Make Glow angels instead of snow angels - 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.

False advertising! - 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.
