THE MARVEL OF BIOLUMINESCENCE AND VOLCANIC BUBBLES
Bioluminescence is a captivating natural phenomenon where living organisms produce light.
In the Mediterranean, the Noctiluca Scintillans, a type of plankton, is responsible for creating this enchanting glow. These tiny organisms emit light when disturbed, producing a sparkling effect that turns the sea into a shimmering canvas of blue and green.
The sight of countless sparks lighting up the water as you move through it is nothing short of magical.
Volcanic bubbles, on the other hand, are a testament to the Earth’s fiery heart. Here, underwater volcanic activity creates streams of bubbles that rise to the surface, carrying with them the heat and minerals from the depths of the Earth.
Two phenomena that, combined, showcase the diverse beauty of the underwater world.
BE A WATER EXPLORER IN THE BIOLUMINESCENT SEA FOR A DAY
So, close your eyes, and let the glow, the magic, and the silence lead you to discover marine life, volcanic secrets, and breathtaking sights you’ve never seen before.
Picture yourself as a Water explorer at night but wait before putting on your mask and snorkel.
Our journey begins with an explanation by a sea biologist about this peculiar phenomenon and tiny Noctiluca Scintillans, glowing organisms, who create an underwater light show with their natural brilliance (it’s like entering an almost otherworldly realm).
Then, with the guidance of an experienced diving instructor, we prepare our equipment and set off by boat to a pristine bay.
As the sun sets and darkness envelops the sea, the true magic begins. Slipping into the water, the bioluminescent plankton reacts to our presence at very moment (a surreal and enchanting display that feels like swimming through a sea of stars).
As we explore the bay, we swim into a sea cave, where the confined space intensifies the bioluminescent glow, making it even more spectacular (it’s unbelievable it can be more magical).
Now, we return to the boat and head to an area, around The Aragonese Castle, known for its underwater volcanic activity (the Castle from this point of view looks like even more enormous and very unique).
So, light on our torch and we are witnesses of the extraordinary sight of volcanic bubbles rising from the sea floor (it looks like a natural jacuzzi).
However, this last stop represents the end of our wonderful and ethereal journey in the underwater world (floating in the sea and admiring the starry sky, we forget every thought).
