Hey folks,
A buddy and I had just jumped off a boat near Chumphon Pinnacle (not far from Koh Tao, in Thailand). We were swimming maybe a meter below the surface, heading towards Chumphon, when we started to see these little blue lights. Each 'light' was a speck - perhaps the size of a crumb. They were clearly alive, for when we made motions toward them, the beings' phosphorescence would stop and they would be some of the many specks in the ocean.
We surmised that they were some kind of phosphorescent plankton, but if anybody had a more definitive answer, I would love to hear it.
