Make sure to check out the moon calendar before you travel!

For weddings I suggest a full moon - for star gazing a new one ;)

Okay,
so here's a question... is it easier to see the bioluminescence (sp?) when there's no moon? We're coming down during the new moon on Nov10th-16.

Also would this effect marine life activity at night? My wife and I are interested in maybe doing a night snorkell off of Tamarindo (where we're staying). I guess it would be darker, so we'd be more dependent on an underwater lanterns.?.

Bioluminescence is definitely best at a new moon. If you bring a lantern you are in effect making an even stronger moon and you will NOT see the various creatures - including yourself - glow in the dark. So I suggest you first go without lantern and then with - for color!

Enjoy Culebra!

As relates to your calendar and the Caribbean, I assume that the middle image in the series of full looking moons IS the full moon. Is this universal enough that I could use the calendar to peg the dates of the full moon parties at the Bomba Shack on Tortola? Does anyone know how the dates are chosen for those parties?

Doug,

the moon calendar is actually pretty universal. you can roll your cursor over the images and the one that is the EXACT full moon shoould give you a message to that effect (at least in IE and Mozilla browsers)

Enjoy Culebra!
