Luminous Lagoon in Trelawny Jamaica

The Luminous Lagoon located in Trelawny, Jamaica is on my number one must see places when I visit Jamaica again. I wanted to witness and experience this for myself on my last visit but time just didnt permit. Seem I just couldnt find myself in the area at night. A friend who was visiting and able to see send me these pictures.The brackish water which is a mixture of salt and river water from the  Caribbean Sea and the Martha Brae River creates the perfect evironment for the Algae to thrive because of the mixture of nutrients from red mangrove tress. The algae are not piosonous  and sometimes contain high levels of ammonia
