Why take this tour?

Join MBTION for La Parquera Boat Tours in Bio Bay — the #2 Top Things To Do in San Juan!

 

Let MBTION VIP take you to go swim and dive in the warm glowing waters of the most complete bioluminescence swim tour from San Juan, and have it checked off your bucket list! By swimming in the bioluminescent waters of La Parguera in the south of our magnificent island’s township of Lajas, you will be doing what very few others have ever done.

First, you will be picked up from your hotel by your guide/driver at 4pm then you will set out on a journey through the ever changing views crossing the central mountain range and the south plains in a 2-hr drive to La Parguera. As soon as the sun sets you will board a boat and ride through the warm Caribbean Sea, home to the enchanted bioluminescence filled waters of Papayo Bay. Once you reach the bay, swim and dive to witness how every movement you make awakens the glowing and otherworldly effect of the trillions of dinoflagellates surrounding you that will give off a light show like none on earth.

For 60-90 minutes, you will have the time to swim around and make splashes to fully immerse yourself with the mesmerizing light show before heading back to the dock and being driven back to your departing spot. Combining it with our Caracoles Cay Snorkeling Tour and Sunset Watching, and make it a full Beach Tour, will for sure have you experiencing the most unique natural wonders Puerto Rico has to offer and you will bring home memories that will last forever!

Frequently asked questions

No, beginners are welcome and will be guided by our instructors.
Wear comfortable clothing that can get wet.
If you are looking for the most unique thing to do in Puerto Rico, a professionally curated and proven bioluminescent swim boat tour, and totally off the beaten path making the most out of your time and money, you just found it!
You will be picked up and dropped off in Condado at 1055 Ashford Ave, in the Condado Vanderbilt Valet area, or behind Walgreens if coming in a cruise so that you won’t have to get a taxi or Uber to go to some spot in Old San Juan and then have to guess where to find your guide or stand among hundreds of people coming off the ship trying to find your guide.
No chance of that happening! You will get a fully bilingual professional guide during the whole experience.
The biggest difference with this tour is that we take you to the Bioluminescence in a boat that requires no effort on your part. Then, you can swim and immerse in it and not just swipe your hand 3 feet above the water in a kayak. With other tour packages like Fajardo bioluminescent tours, they are done in kayaks. It is an uneventful and less than ideal way to experience it because with kayaking in the dark through a narrow channel you will end up bumping into other kayaks and the occasional mangrove roots. It is also within the main island, so no ferry or overnight stay to do it like in Mosquito Bay.
Swimming in the bioluminescent water will feel just like a regular swim. The dinoflagellates are microscopic and very resilient, so the oil on our skin represent no harm for them. You won’t feel any difference from regular sea water other than the bay is a bit warmer due to limited water flow and salter because there used to be salt mines in the area. Which makes it better because you will float easier! Also, don’t worry because we have foam noodles that you can use to float even easier. Combine that with the waterfalls at the Tropical Rain Forest to make it the ultimate nature lovers experience in Puerto Rico!
