A bioluminescent bay on Vieques' south coast, certified by Guinness in 2008 as the brightest in the world, where microscopic organisms make the water glow blue-green with every paddle stroke. Tours run by kayak or electric boat after dark; swimming isn't allowed. Go on a moonless night for the best show.
