Before I die I want to...
Night Swim In Glistening Waters (Luminous Lagoon) In Falmouth (Jamaica)

Share to support MalvOfEarth! Or to Buddy Up :)

This place is MAGICAL!!! Glistening Waters is a glowing lagoon on the north coast of Jamaica. This marvel is only found in 4 places in the world, however, this lagoon is the brightest of them all due to more consistent climate. Here, the fresh water from the Martha Brae River meets the salt-water ocean and this amazing creation is formed. The water is filled with phosphorous which allows it to illuminate so brilliantly when disturbed. he glow is formed from small microorganisms that emit a flash of light when touched. The microscopic organisms live and create a natural phenomenon, known as bioluminescence. Jamaica’s luminous lagoon being the brightest of them all amazes scientists and visitors worldwide. The lagoon is the best place to see the microscopic organisms called dinoflagellates. The lagoon is home to millions of these organisms that thrive where the salt water meets the fresh water. Try to dip your hand or foot in the water. You will see the water light up around you. You will even see fish swim around and blue light surround them. https://things-to-do-in-jamaica.com/glistening-waters-in-jamaica/ MalvOfEarth
