It was a nice tour. The water was warm. I would recommend water shoes as they say because the bottom is mush and you sink in about 6 inches. But if the mush doesn't bother you go barefoot as our group did.

This was such a great excursion! Easy to coordinate our pick up with the driver. Boat captain is great! Swimming in the glowing water was a lifetime moment. There’s nothing I would have improved

Before we got on the boat, they served us with drinks and entertainment. It only took 15 minutes for the sun to set, and then when it was dark we set of to the glorious waters. At first the water is just plain when you look from the boat, but when you jump in it’s magical. The glowing waters magically activate with movement from your body. The water is shallow so any adult can stand without worrying.

The driver, Errol, was kind and patient when coordinating pickup from the different parts of the island I was staying. When we were driving to the luminous bay, he took song requests which was fun to sing along to. When we got to the dock, we had some chill time until the sun went down and enjoyed some rum punch and water with some friendly bartenders. The boat crew was nice, offering to take pictures of us with the luminous waters, which lasted about 15 minutes of swim time. The swimming was warm, brackish waters, with mud that kind of felt spa like, although I recommend water shoes. Definitely would do again!

This was really fun! The guides were great! Try not to go in rainy season though as its harder to see and bring water shoes!
