Bioluminesence at Tindalls Beach

The algae behind the blue glow is known as Noctilucca scintillans, or 'sea sparkle'.
At night, the algae lets off an electric-blue glow as a result of its biological reaction to disturbance, as a means of protecting itself - similar to that of a squid squirting ink.
