- In Phuket, Thailand there are ocean waters that glow in the dark, and it's pure magic. Is it bio-luminescence? How can YOU find it? Find out in this video. This Channel is your Thailand Travel Guide after all.
Phuket is the best place to jump on a boat and explore the amazing area of Phang Nga Bay and Koh Phi Phi, but I'm trying something completely new....a custom boat tour from a local guide who takes me to secret spots and when it gets dark, the sea lights up. Amazing!

คนใต้ทุกคน ควรให้ความเอื้ออาทร ให้เกียรติเจ้าของช่องนี้ ทั้งสามีและภรรยาเค้าค่ะ
…เค้าทำการตลาดให้พวกคุณ… เห็นเค้าตามร้านค้า ตามถนน ตามสถานที่ต่างๆ ได้โปรดเอื้อเฟื้อเค้าเถอะค่ะ ต่อให้เป็นมะพร้าว 1 ลูก ข้าวต้มทะเล 1 ชาม มันก็คือจิตวิญญาณของไทย🇹🇭แท้ๆของเรา
คนต่างชาติที่รักและสร้างคุณูปการให้ไทยขนาดนี้ควรได้รับเครื่องราชย์จริงๆ
ต่างชาติรุ้จากเขาเยอะมาก เขาโปรโมทให้พวกเรา พวกเราต้องขอบคุนเขาจริงๆๆ
คนใต้ทุกคน ?
Thanks for a good clip.
พึ่งรู้จากคลิปนี้เลยว่าไทยเรามีทะเลเรืองแสงด้วย
I’m Thai and I didn’t know we have this beautiful natural ✨.
Thank you for share this experience to us. Love it❤
Glad you enjoyed it!
Same. Never knew that we have this in Thailand.
I’m Thai too and I never knew anything like this existed in Thailand. It's like suddenly knowing that Thailand has an aurora or something like that.
Same! I’m Thai too❤
Welcome to thailand 🙏ประเทศไทยยินดีต้อนรับนักท่องเที่ยวทุกคนครับ❤🇹🇭👍👍✌✌
The look on Alex's face, you can tell he loves the islands.
What a great trip.
We just did this trip with Alex yesterday and were blown away by the experience, if you're looking for a once in a lifetime experience that captures the beauty of Thailand and some magic thrown into the mix, this is a must. Alex is personable, professional and he made the trip engaging and informative. We were fortunate to visit four caves and their associated lagoons and be the only ones inside for the majority of the time - our own little secluded world. This tour was highly personalized, with just the two of us along with Alex and the two crew members of the Five Star speedboat. Boating and paddling among the towering islands was impressive. While the tour isn't inexpensive, it was well worth every Baht. Highly recommend!
Please tell us the price
@@Craigdaspike i made a request 780 euro(290000 baht). Park fees and lunch not included. For me way to expensive.
thank you so much for the support :)
Hello may I knw the cost / person! And what if we r group or 4-5people?
@@robinvdw2685 ah ok I was guessing this was around 400usd in my mind I was way off lol
I am sold, just need to arrange flights and accommodation. I will be happy to have the beer at sunset but you need to provide the G&T's for the wife.
Welcome you to the kingdom of smiles!!🙏💕🌈💞
Beers on the tours? HELL YES! And I don't even drink beer! But I do know that beer on the water go hand-in-hand. My vote... YES!
Yup, its the same-same at Koh Lanta and down to Koh Lipe! Once you see the bioluminescence plankton you will never be the same! It's like seeing aurora borealis in the water, you can actually pick up the grains of glowing plankton in your hand. Totally cool! Thanks, Gary & Linda
I once saw them when I went sea diping at SATAHEEP CHONBURI (Navy Base Camp). And 30 years later I watched it in LIFE OF PI the movie…. The real thing is even more magical.
Where in lanta?
@@helee28 we left for an evening cruise from Saladan. We were south of Saladan on the west side of the island. We also saw glowing plankton on Koh Lipe in 2020.
@@Gary_and_Linda wow 😳 after travelling for years I don't really get excited about sight seeing or 'things to do'. But this, this I can't wait to 'do'. Sounds magical
Alex is such a wonderful guy! If I ever visit Phuket I will 100% book Alex for a tour. He should take beer, and other drinks for those who don’t drink alcohol 😌 I hope Alex’s tour gets lots of bookings!
you talk about seeing something beautiful the caves and lagoons were awesome and then top it off with a sunset and the glowing water so cool would be a awesome trip whenever i get to thailand this would be on my list thank you sir for this video
Alex is very well spoken in English, he also has passion for his work. good on you Alex, onwards and upwards.
WOW, this is so wonderful. I have seen the phosphorescent of sea water in a TV series. But I never thought it is a real thing. Until I have seen your video today. Thank you so much.
Camera lense picks it up a lot more than your eyes. You will never see it like this with the name. eye …. but looks really cool on camera.
Book me and my wife in for the 27th of April. Wow good job Chris!

The only time I saw water glowing was doing some snorkeling in kho phi phi at night and seeing planktons illuminating. I’ve never seen anything like that , it was amazing.
I did that and stood on a sea urchin, video on my page
I have missed my trip to Phang nga back 30 years ago... Unforgettably memory in my life.. we were took to a few different caves out beyond our route we were told... the tour guys leader was amazing 👏 beautiful part of the world.
Thanks to this video I've just come back from the most amazing day with Alex and the crew. Thank you Chris for showing these gems to the world
wow, what a day you must've had!
Boy, that is absolutely incredible God willing I would be able to do that next year but I’ll be 65😊
This is the tour I've been looking for and I've watched the channel for nearly 3 years now, going back to Thailand in November 2023 dragging friends with us this time and visiting phuket for a week will be looking this up
No beer!! We should support that floating bar!!!
11:16 THE ECHO IS FANTASTIC!!!❤
OMG, that looks spectacular... I might be out there end of next year and will definitely put this on the list.. Alex seems super sweet and I'm happy for him!!!!
yes, he is awesome!
Yup I will deff be doing this on my trip to Thailand! Alex has been doing this for years but his smile looks full of happiness everytime. I can’t wait to go!
this is what i love to view. thailand's gems. this is for sure spot i will check out when i go back
Look like Avatar underwater world
I'm thai living in FL. I have seen bioluminescence in here FL. I love seeing a lot. It's my favorite thing in my life because it's amazing. I know that it's not many place in the world has bioluminescence.
I dream to take my parents to see bioluminescence once in the life time. I think it's impossible because it's very expensive to take them to FL.
So, this is the great news knowing that my home country also has bioluminescence. I feel like my dream is back to live.
Thank you for sharing this.
I live in Thailand now, and will definitely have to get over there to see. Years ago, I rafted on the glowing sea in Jamaica, and it was amazing.
"Is this real or just tall tales? We're gonna find out! For the first time!"
My dude hasnt had internet access for the past 25 years?
Love your videos xD
It just gets a bit strange with the internet-doesnt-exist retro roleplay.
I live in Phuket; on Phang Nga Bay.This is my back yard and I take the boat out to this fascinating bay all the time. Nothing beats the experience and beauty of it ❤
Hi Florian, I’m coming to phuket january 20-23 2024, where can i see them? Is there anyway I could text you :)?
Phang Nga Bay is a must do while in Phuket, IMHO. My visits there have always been amazing.
Best part is, you can go pretty much all year round. The location and nature of the bay are such that you don't have the low-season scary seas like in the Andaman Sea off Phuket's west coast.
That was brilliant. So pleased that Alex can do these tours (and definitely need beers for sunset). Chris - you make things happen for people - well done.
That is really amazing Chris glow in the dark water 🌊💦 I'd like to see that in person
Beers and wine absolutely. Great looking tour Alex.
While you want some, the boat comes with beer. Just wonderful.
Wow! Didn’t know before that Thailand has glow in the dark sea water. This is amazing!
I’m Thai.but I never know. Have so much beautiful like this before, thx you so much. Thailand and Thai people Love you. Welcome kaaaaaa.
For me, the most beautiful lagoon in Thailand is the one on koh mook, definitely!!!
You're going to have a waiting list for the tour.
Ohhh it is so so sooooo beautiful!! And you can never be disappointed on a 5 Star Marine private tour!❤
Oh my! What an awesome tour! Alex is a terrific tour guide ... that would be a tour. We would definitely go on if we could do it quietly like you did and not be crowded out by other tourists. 😊❤ The scenery that Alexshowed you (minusother people) is what I look for doing tours. Too many people ruin the natural part of a tour. Beers not something we drink but if there was some Soda Water or Coke Zero, he'd be our friend. That bioluminescence is awesome! And those stars are amazing. Both thumbs up for Alex and his tour
ว้าวมากครับ .. เคยทำงานอยู่ในอุตสาหกรรมท่องเที่ยวในภูเก็ตมา 7 ปี ไม่เคยรู้เลยว่ามีทะเลเรืองแสงแบบนี้ด้วย ❤️
Have to be honest - don't know that there are very many tours I'd go on. Really like to explore on my own but...this looks like a great line up. As a former Naval Officer, Ive had the opportunity to see bioluminsecense on numerous occasions and it never ceases to amaze! It's a wonderful experience and to be in the sea and experience it on such an intimate level will most definitely be a bucket list item for many your subscribers. Looks like you, Alex and 5 Star Marine have ginned up a winner. May just have to bring my "Thai family" down for the tour when in country in May.
Wow, I could say that you're our travel pioneer. I've been in Phuket for almost 17 years and never heard of that. Congrats and TYVM to share this to the world. Respect.
100% Shaun should let Alex do this tour and absolutely have some beers for the sunset. I will definately do this tour when I return in December and another one I need to talk Jay into going on!
Well done Alex! YEs to sunset beers, always!!!
ฉันเป็นคนไทยแท้ๆยังไม่เคยรู้เลยว่ามีที่แบบนี้อยู่ด้วย มันวิเศษมาก ตอนที่มันเรืองแสงไปตามการเคลื่อนไหวของน้ำ ราวกับต้องมนต์ รวมถึงดาวบนท้องฟ้าที่แย่งกันทอแสงที่หาไม่ได้จากในเมือง มันสวยมากจริงๆ
That’s a sweet tour idea, Chris. Picture and editing is boast- worthy, man
What a spectacular place!
I'm very happy with this script. I'm a Thai person who doesn't have money for traveling. Thank you very much. I'm very happy today.😊😊
What a video! I look forward to eventually taking this tour. God bless!
Very inspiring!!! Love the videos and I wish Alex luck.
Amazingly beautiful !
Absolutely amazing!!!!!!
Need to a find a day in my calendar!!!!
beautiful Chris , thank you 🥰🥰🥰
Andaman Sea, beautiful water, very playful, wow in Thailand
ขอบคุณมาก คริส
คริปนี้เหมือนได้ไปด้วย ตื่นเต้นตาม🇹🇭🤟🇨🇦👍👍🙏
I approve of the tour! Thanks for the previews!
Also as far as drinks I think having a full option of beers and non alcoholic drinks would be great. I know for me I wouldn’t mind a Thai ice tea, or coconut juice or something healthy
Once again, another awesome video!
Chris, thanks for sharing this video. I know you loved filming it! Those caves were amazing!
Thx for the interesting video Chris. My Last 3 days in BKK starts now Thailand is always so great. Keep it up !
Aloha Chris! 🤙
Love your videos, thanks so much for your hard work, much appreciated!!
Absolutely amazing tour.. cheers for beers !👍🍻
Yes Alex should definitely bring the beer
Truly amazing, next time i’m in Thailand I’m game!🙏🏽🌸
Have fun!
That looks amazing! I've been fascinated with bioluminescence ever since the museum of natural history in NYC had an exhibit.
Count me in when i get there.
Amazing Chris! Yes, this would be a popular tour.
Ive been to that floating restaurant a couple of times now and it’s great. Nice boat ride over and great food and service. Prices are good too.
Watched so many of your videos Chris and yeah impossible to rank them, but this was very cool. Thanks for the tour... Alex is great. Thanks also to 5 Star Marine on Phuket.
Amazing ... Bucket list on my first trip to Thailand
A few years ago I saw the waves glowing blue as they crashed on the beach one night in Koh Phangan. Incredible sight.
Looks amazing. The sunset beers are a must. Also some late night snacks to go along with the beers.
For those in the States. You can see this in the areas of N Carolina down to Georgia as well as many areas in the Caribbean (eg Jamaica). Essentially often happens in brackish waters.
Some of my favorite visits I have experienced in Thailand!...never gets old!
BEER YESSS :D Awesome video and all good luck to Alex.
What a cool excursion. Looking forward to getting over there again.
Sushmita: Glow in the Dark... I'm speechless 😮 WOW awesome 👌 ❤
Planning our family holiday to Phuket in May , would love to do this tour and yes to the beers
Wow what an amazing tour!! Yes to beers on the trip! Alex you are amazing at what you do!
Thank you!
This happens in many places around the world. The first place I seen this was off the coast of Newfoundland. It's very cool to see
As usual, looks amazing......I'm counting the days now!
Wow how amazing ❤❤
Amazing video Chris. Had me really into Alex and his story. His excitement at the end was very touching.
That so amazing in Thailand and very Exciting to see thanks for explore around of Thailand ❤ I will be to support you guys
God. I’m Thai but I never know we have that. I have not been there yet. Thanks to your video. It will be on my bucket list. 😊 wonderful

Superb. Thanks for bringing it to our attention. We're Bangkokians and will seek Alex and this tour out soon.
