Luminous Lagoon Night Tour from Montego Bay

1.Luminous Lagoon Night Tour from Montego Bay

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 419 reviews · from $54Our pick

Night boat and swim in Jamaica’s luminous lagoon from Montego Bay, with hotel pickup, rum punch, and a glowing 3-hour tour.

“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.”
