#1TravelMom Posted May 26, 2005 #1 Share Posted May 26, 2005 We will be in Puerto Rico in July and want to experience a "glowing" bay. We are staying at the Wyndham El Conquistador. They offer a trip to the bay nearby. Is this one nice or should we opt for the night tour to Vieques??? The price is about 3X to go to Vieques.:confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snorkelman Posted May 26, 2005 #2 Share Posted May 26, 2005 make sure to read the other threads on this topic. someone posted a moon chart. you should look at it because depending on the day, if the moon is not in the right phase, you won't see anything.

crisp1 Posted May 26, 2005 #3 Share Posted May 26, 2005 Vieques is off the coast of PR, and you have to take a ferry there. I don't know how the 2 compare, but have heard good things about the one in PR. check this site out http://www.biobay.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandybeach121 Posted May 27, 2005 #4 Share Posted May 27, 2005 The quality is measured by how many "glowing" organisms are in a gallon of water. Vieques has the most organisms per gallon, so it glows more. However, if you can't make it to Vieques, the one in Fajardo would be worth seeing. I don't know how much of a difference there actually is, but Vieques is suppose to be the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjeffv Posted May 27, 2005 #5 Share Posted May 27, 2005 Does anyone know if you can see the Fajardo bio bay by boat - not a kayak but a small electric one? We read a review a while back that mentioned this and will be traveling with kids too young to kayak. Also, is it even worthwhile if it is a week before the full moon? Thanks.

I was there in February and there was a boat that came in. Our tour guide did say, however, that the government was possibly going to disallow boats coming in. Depending on how young your children are, a strong adult can easily control a two person kayak, so your children might not have to do anything but ride.

#1TravelMom Posted May 31, 2005 Author #7 Share Posted May 31, 2005 Whick bay did you go to? We were scheduled for a trip last year, but 100's of motorcycle riders were protesting in the park where the tour departs and it was cancelled "for our safety". The strangest things happen to us. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
