You're looking at the beautiful beach of Maldives. Flickr user hala065 brings us these otherworldly images of a beach in the Maldives that glows blue. What is happening here?

The light is coming from bioluminescent phytoplankton, and it is weirdly mesmerizing to see. First spotted by Colossal, these phenomenal photographs show how the glowing phytoplankton light the entire beach where the waves hit the sand and agitate the little creatures.

Check out a few more pictures of it in the gallery below:
