La Parguera Phosphorescent Bay glows with the millions of microscopic organisms known as dinoflagellates that sparkle when disturbed. This phenomenon occurs only in the tropics, typically in mangrove-protected bays like this one.
La Parguera, on the southwest coast about 45 minutes west of Ponce and 20 minutes from Guanica, is one of two areas in Puerto Rico that has this remarkable nighttime attraction. The other is the offshore island of Vieques.
