- Grace Bay - Prepare for a magnificent evening on a unique sunset cruise in Providenciales. The natural spectacle of this marine mating ritual—when thousands of glow worms (odontosyllis enopla) illuminate the sea during their spawning cycle—never ceases to amaze and delight people of all ages. This species of marine worm, known more commonly as a glow worm, inhabits the shallow waters around a few secluded cays.
The show begins shortly after sunset, when female glow worms release their eggs, which float to the surface and give off pulses of pale green light. The males also glow with this bioluminescence as they dart among the egg clusters to fertilize them. For approximately 15 to 20 minutes, you’ll see the surface of the water come alive with tiny bursts of light as a new generation is spawned!
Enjoy complimentary rum punch, local beers, wine, soft drinks and bottled water accompanied by a selection of local appetisers.
The timing of this glow worm mating ritual is controlled by natural forces and tied to the lunar cycle so this tour is only available for three days each month. The boat used for this tour is usually our Power Catamaran but occasionally our Sail Catamaran is used.
