Experience the magic of Jamaica’s Glistening waters. The luminous lagoon created by fresh water from the Martha Brae River meeting the salt water of the ocean. One of four luminous lagoons in the world – Indonesia, Bahamas, Puerto Rico and Jamaica – Glistening Waters being the brightest of them all. Microorganisms called dinoflagellates, lives in combined fresh and salt water and creates the bioluminescent effect. They shine brightest in warm shallow waters. The lagoon sparkles at night when the water is disturbed. Go ahead and dip your hand or foot in the water and see it light up. Come see the beauty of the water at night. Wear a bathing suit and take a towel to enjoy swimming in the luminescent water once the boat is far out enough. Don’t forget your cameras to take pictures of the luminescent water around you. Watch as your body and swimsuit light up as you move around. Take the entire family for a leisurely swim in the 3-4 feet deep water. Carry an empty bottle to collect water which will continue to glow for a few hours.

Deep in the heart of Jamaica’s lush countryside is the heaven of rum: the Nassau Valley. Here lies the legendary Appleton Estate, where water is filtered by nature’s hand as it percolates for miles through unmapped limestone hills and flows into the Appleton Estate spring. In this warm, verdant setting, Appleton Estate has been perfecting the art of making handcrafted rum for over 260 years. During the fermentation process, the sugar cane molasses and a special culture of yeast combine with exceptionally soft water, filtered the limestone hills of the Cockpit Country and giving Appleton Estate Jamaican rums their unique character, taste and aroma. Spend some time learning about the unique fermentation process and sample some freshly pressed cane juice and “wet sugar” before you sit down for the main tour attraction: 10 different types of Jamaica rum liquors to sample from. The kicker is a complimentary bottle of rum for every visitor to take home and enjoy.
