La Parguera, a small fishing village in Lajas has reborn in recent years. Due to its geographical location it offers one of the best preserved coral reef systems and mangrove forests in the Caribbean. Various restaurants and bars add to the local attractions. We will drive for about 2.5 hrs (bathroom stops offered), as you enjoy the lush views of the Central area that then changes to a semi-desert landscape. Upon arrival we will stop for appetizers (additional f&b costs not included). Watch the sunset (depending on the time of the year) as we head out for a 25 minute ride thru the mangrove channels. You will have the opportunity to swim at one of it's cays, before we head out to the area where the bioluminescence happens. Your guide will explain everything you need to know about these microscopic dinoflagelates that give off heat in the form of light when disturbed. Once we reach the bay you will have the opportunity to experience this phenomenon first hand.

Hats off to George the guide. He was very courteous, informative, and helped make the tour quite enjoyable. Luis was a wonderful captain of the boat, maintaining complete and professional control, getting us to the bay. Well worth the cost and time Thanks, C. Marchman

We had a great time with George on the La Parguera Bioluminescent Bay tour. We got off to a slow start due to the weather/traffic delays but once we saw the glowing water of the bay it was completely worth it! Such a magical experience with seeing the water glow around you and watching sparkling blue diamonds fall off your skin when you raise your arms up out of the water. George has a great sense of humor and was a very good tour guide. He was kind enough to take pictures for us to memorialize our experience which was greatly appreciated. Captain Luis did a great job with guiding us through the mangroves and to the bay. The only downside was that a few guests were stung by jellyfish but that’s always a risk with getting into the ocean. No serious injuries though. It was such a great trip overall, though, and very much worth taking the majority of a day to see. Truly breathtaking!!!
