Beaches in mysterious blue glow


Along Shenzhen’s coastline at Dapeng Bay and Daya Bay, a mysterious glowing blue light was spotted near the shore on Sunday, attracting local residents to come out and appreciate the extraordinary natural phenomenon.


When they first saw the glowing blue “lights”, many residents thought it was the reflection of beacons and lamps from nearby ships.



Shenzhen’s ocean authorities explained that the glowing blue lights scattered on the surface of water near the city resulted from a chemical reaction called bioluminescence.


 When microbes in sea react to oxygen, they will glow blue at night.
