Quick Details
Your visit to Puerto Rico isn’t complete until you discover the natural wonders of one of our bioluminescent bays. Join us on an unforgettable tour to see this unique phenomenon.
La Parguera Reserve, set aside by the Department for Natural and Environmental Resources, is recognized as a world-class treasure. Within it is found one of the world’s few bio bays, where there are sufficient microscopic bioluminescent organisms to produce light visible to plain eyesight. Just jump in to activate the show.
We start our journey with a pick-up at your hotel lobby. It’s a two-hour scenic drive from San Juan to Lajas. The highway cuts through the mountains north to south and vice versa. Immerse yourself in the perspective of the south side of Puerto Rico. Once in Lajas, we embark with our captain just in time to watch the sunset over the horizon.
After dusk, our captain enters the bio bay and provides the scientific reasons for the effect. Then you can enter the water to swim and frolic about (approx. 30 min. swimming time).
Life vests, bottled water, and beer are provided.
We drop you off at your hotel around 11 p.m.
