Luminous Lagoon Jamaica Deals

Planning a trip to Jamaica? Look no further than the Glistening Waters Luminous Lagoon Tour, an unforgettable experience that will leave you in awe. Located just outside the historic town of Falmouth, Jamaica, about 30 minutes from Montego Bay, this natural phenomenon is a must-visit attraction.

The cost for locals is approximately 1500JMD, while tourists can expect to pay around 20USD. The tour begins after sunset, usually around 6:30pm, and takes place on a boat that departs every 30-45 minutes. With clear signs directing you to Glistening Waters, driving there was a breeze for me.

Alternatively, the Knutsford Express bus stops directly at Glistening Waters, making it easy to get there without worrying about driving. After researching various tours, I booked with Glistening Waters Luminous Lagoon Tour and was not disappointed. Locals can also book directly with tour guides in Falmouth or opt for a guided tour from most hotels in Montego Bay.

It's essential to note that attempting to visit the lagoon on your own is not recommended, as you'll need a boat to fully experience the wonders of this luminous phenomenon. For those driving from Kingston, it took me around 2.5 hours on the North-South Highway (or Edward Seaga Highway).

The Luminous Lagoon is a unique bay surrounded by mangroves and formed where the fresh waters of the Martha Brae river meet the Caribbean Sea. This mixing of fresh and salty water creates an environment perfect for tiny creatures called dinoflagellates, which emit a mesmerizing glow when disturbed.

During this tour, you can customize your experience by adding stops at attractions like Rose Hall Great House, Greenwood Great House, Doctor's Cave Beach, Hip Strip, and more. Once the boat is far enough out, you may have the option to swim in the bay. As you move around in the water, you'll see your swimsuit and body light up – a truly remarkable sight.

As you explore the lagoon, keep an eye out for fish swimming around and the blue light surrounding them. Try dipping your hand or foot in the water to witness the incredible bioluminescence firsthand. The Glistening Waters Luminous Lagoon Tour is undoubtedly a once-in-a-lifetime experience that will leave you in wonder.
