The Bermuda Underwater Exploration Institute is offering a glowworm cruise. Bermuda's fireworm or "worm" produces bioluminescent displays during its mating activities. Through the months of June, July, August and September, between two and three nights after a full moon, after sunset this illuminated mating ritual can be witnessed. In calm inlets, bioluminescent fireworks swarm to the surface of the sea and engage in sensuous dances and as they do, they give off a luminescent glow that lights up the water. Lasting only a few minutes, the dance is repeated the following month. The Glow Worm Cruise leaves from the BUEI Dock and heads to a calm area to witness this monthly ritual. Members $35.00 & Non Members $40.00. Must be over 14 year of age. For tickets telephone the Oceans Gift Shop at 297-7314. Credit cards accepted.
