Puerto Mosquito
Puerto Rico, Puerto Rico
Puerto Mosquito, also known as Mosquito Bay, is a world-famous bioluminescent bay on Vieques Island off Puerto Rico's east coast, renowned as the brightest of its kind due to high concentrations of glowing dinoflagellates that light up water electric blue when disturbed, especially on moonless nights.
Named after pirate Roberto Cofresí's ship "El Mosquito" rather than insects, this shallow, mangrove-lined inlet spans 160 acres within a protected natural reserve where licensed kayak or boat tours are required for access—no swimming allowed to preserve the fragile ecosystem.
