“Blue tears” are formed when clusters of marine algae, disturbed by the crashing waves, glow a bioluminescent blue. “Blue tears” are very susceptible to external light and can only be seen in pitch darkness.
The glowing waters are caused by certain algae called dinoflagellates, which produce a glowing light when the water they are living in is disturbed by motion. They can actually be found in most of the world’s oceans but are generally too small and dim to see. However, during the warmer summer months in more temperate waters, they can grow in higher concentrations, which then allows us to see the beautiful blue glow they create.
