Additional Information

The radiant harbour of Glistening Waters is one of only four naturally occurring bioluminescent bays on the planet! The lagoon in Jamaica is deemed the brightest among them, drawing tourists and scientists globally.

When the marine life inhabiting the waters is provoked, the lagoon emits a gorgeous azure glow, and during rainfall, the site becomes a breathtaking light spectacle. The harmless microorganisms residing in this extraordinary bay are a result of the amalgamation of the fresh waters from the Martha Brae River and the briny waters of the Caribbean Sea.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime adventure where you have the luxury to either swim, wade in the water or simply enjoy the splashes.

At the site, dinner options are available should you decide to partake.

Must see - Was v cool to see the blues in the dark river/lake. Must wear shoes and bring towels to dry off Much closer to Montego Bay compared to Ochi Rios. Tons of traffic if coming from Ochi. We’re told 40 mts but took almost 1.45 hours from Ochi. Excursion only was 15/20 mts once got in boat and into water Recommend this experience

Terrible customer support - My flight got delayed 27 hrs, I called 30 hours before excursion to change date. I was told I could not change date and they would be keeping my $490 even though my tickets said as long as I cancelled or changed within 24 hours I would get a full refund. It took me an hour and a half of arguing before I was finally able to change my date with no penalty. The tour guide and driver were amazing, but your customer service agent on phone was ignorant and hostile. She seemed not to understand how to read a clock and understand the difference between 30 hours and 24 hours.
