RAA ATOLL, MALDIVES

-

THE glowing neon-like blue balls at night on the beach at Vaadhoo island, Raa Atoll, are a natural phenomenon called biolumines­cence, occurring when plankton come into contact with oxygen. It’s usually at its best from midsummer to winter.

Biolumines­cence isn’t the best hashtag for your social media, # SeaOfStars says it all.
