Did you know that Puerto Rico
boasts 3 bioluminescent bays? Only 5 ecosystems around the world provide the conditions necessary for this unique natural phenomenon, and 3 of those are found around the island.
A microscopic organism called dinoflagellates glows in the dark when stimulated by movement. This single-celled creature is found throughout the world’s oceans. However, it is rare for them to populate areas of water in sufficient quantities for this effect to be visible. In a few locations like Laguna Grande in Fajardo, large quantities of dinoflagellates light up the water with a blue-green color whenever you paddle through the waves.
The best way to see this spectacular phenomenon is to join a night kayak tour that uses clear bottomed kayaks to explore the lagoon. These tours are also a great way to learn about marine biodiversity in Puerto Rico. Laguna Grande is a 1-hour-21-minute drive to the east of Dorado. Another location is at La Pargera and Paradise Villas & Vacations can recommend a few different operators that offer access to that bio-bay, located in the south-west tip of the Island.
