The glow comes from microscopic organisms called dinoflagellates. When disturbed by movement, they emit a flash of blue-green light — a natural defense mechanism that creates the glowing effect.

Absolutely! All of our tours are led by certified, experienced guides and conducted with full safety measures. Life jackets are provided, and the bay is calm and shallow. Additionally, all of our staff are certified in CPR and First Aid to ensure the highest level of safety and preparedness during every tour.

Each tour lasts approximately 1.5, including safety orientation and time on the water.

No prior experience is needed. Our tours are beginner-friendly, and we offer guidance throughout the experience.

Comfortable clothing, water shoes, insect repellent (DEET-free), and a waterproof bag are recommended. We suggest avoiding light-colored clothing to better enjoy the glow!

The bioluminescence is brightest around the new moon, when the sky is darkest. We recommend booking during these dates for the best visibility.
