Nature has a way of surprising us, and nowhere is this more evident than in Puerto Rico’s glowing bioluminescent bays. Mosquito Bay in Vieques is one of the brightest bioluminescent bays in the world, where microscopic organisms called dinoflagellates emit a mesmerizing blue glow when disturbed. Kayaking through these glowing waters under the night sky feels like drifting through a world of pure magic. If Puerto Rico isn’t accessible, visit bioluminescent waters in Thailand’s Koh Rong, Jamaica’s Luminous Lagoon, or California’s shores during seasonal blooms.
