The Luminous Lagoon is more than just a popular tourist attraction - it is a natural wonder that can be seen in very few places in the world. In Jamaica, the Luminous Lagoon can be found on the island’s north coast in an area where the Martha Brae River meets the Caribbean Sea. The draw of this wondrous natural gem is the glowing effect that captivates just about everyone who pays a visit. A glowing effect like that of the waters at the Luminous Lagoon in Jamaica can only be seen in four places in the world: The Bahamas, Indonesia, Puerto Rico, and Jamaica. The Luminous Lagoon in Jamaica is said to glow the brightest out of all of these. That alone makes it one of the ‘must-see’ places in Jamaica. If you want to have a Luminous Lagoon experience in Jamaica, you’ll have to be prepared to do a night tour. This is when the glowing effect of the lagoon is most apparent. As part of this adventure, you can simply admire the views from a boat or get into the lagoon for a swim.
