Bioluminescent waves and caves -If you thought that Life of Pi was the stuff of fiction and great CGI, then you have yet to witness the beauty of bioluminescent waves. The glowing ocean is caused by the emission of light by marine organisms such as bacteria and algae. Some of these organisms light up whenever the water around them moves, causing the shorelines of the ocean to glow! There are many places that you can find these glowing beaches such as Krabi Island in Thailand, Bali, Reethi Beach in the Maldives and Holbox island in Mexico. While many of the organisms that create this other-worldly effect are single-celled, some of them are large enough to be seen with the naked eye. They wash up on shores and it looks like glitter. Walk on them and your footsteps will glow. -Jodi Lucas #AstroNature
