Highlights
There are only a handful of bioluminescence or bioluminescent bays in the Caribbean, and not many more than that in the world. They only occur in certain places because they only happen naturally under very specific conditions. The water in Bio Bay is very warm and salty with an abundance of nutrients and seagrass, the perfect environment for special microscopic plankton. These plankton occur all over the island, and all over the Caribbean, but the concentration we find in Bio Bay is what makes for a fantastic experience. Because of these plankton “bioluminescence,” it produces a very short burst of light when stimulated by movement. The Bio Bay is best viewed by floating in the water. With snorkeling gear, you’ll float in this magical bay mesmerized as your movements create trails of light in the water. This shimmering light show is awesome, and if the timing and conditions are right, you might even see the mating glow worms which occur two to three days after the full moon.

About Grand Cayman
Grand Cayman is the largest of the three Cayman Islands, a flat Caribbean island known for Seven Mile Beach, coral reefs and shallow sandbar waters.
George Town, the capital, sits on the sheltered west coast of Grand Cayman, a low limestone island ringed by coral. Seven Mile Beach, a long band of pale sand running north from the capital, is lined with hotels, restaurants and dive shops. The Cayman Islands are a British Overseas Territory, and the banking offices of George Town stand beside the cruise piers and the small national museum.
