Swim in the lagoons and enjoy the pure sensation of absolute freedom

There’s no better place to swim together than the famous Blue Lagoon, a 200-feet deep pool of turquoise water that blends fresh spring and salt water. The pool has a surreal beauty, its shades of blue metamorphosing constantly under the touch of the sun. Many say the Blue Lagoon has an aphrodisiacal effect too! But this is not the only famous lagoon in Jamaica. The Luminous Lagoon takes things to the next level and adds microscopic phosphorescent organisms called dinoflagellates to its waters. When the night comes, the lagoon comes to life! The microscopic organisms light up the waters and the outlines of fish swimming around. Book a tour to the Luminous Lagoon and witness this unworldly spectacle up close. And yes, you can jump and swim in this mesmerizing lagoon while being caressed by the touch of a green glow.

However, if you prefer a more relaxed approach to your “active” fun, enjoy a cruise on the Martha Brae River on a bamboo raft. The departure point is in the Trelawny parish, close to Montego Bay. The raft and your captain will take you into the rainforest to enjoy the scenery, spot wildlife and learn a bit about the local history and the Taino people. If you feel like it, you can jump in the river and add a bit of splash to your adventure.
