Tips for the Best Bioluminescence Experience

To maximize your adventure, follow these tips:

  • Book Early: New moon tours sell out fast. Reserve 15 days in advance for weekends.
  • Dress Smart: Wear quick-drying clothes and water shoes. Mosquitoes love the lagoon, so pack insect repellent.
  • Photography: Capturing bioluminescence is tricky. Use a tripod, wide aperture (f/1.8), and slow shutter speed, or leave the camera behind to soak in the moment.
  • Moon Phases: The darker the night, the brighter the glow. Check our lunar calendar for optimal dates.
