Pingtan Island in Fujian Province, China, is famous for its mysterious and beautiful "blue tears" phenomenon. When night falls, the blue light flashing on the sea is like stars, intoxicating. So, when is the best time to watch this wonder? First, we need to understand the cause of "blue tears". This phenomenon is caused by a microorganism called Noctiluca scintillans that reproduces in large numbers in seawater and is stimulated by external factors. Therefore, its appearance is closely related to the marine environment and climatic conditions. According to years of observation and research, Pingtan Island's "blue tears" generally appear between April and August each year, with May and June being the best viewing periods. During this period, the ocean temperature is suitable, the Noctiluca scintillans thrives, and the night breeze makes the "blue tears" phenomenon more obvious. In addition to the month, the specific viewing time is also affected by factors such as tides and weather. Generally speaking, when the tides alternate, that is, high tide and low tide, it is a good time to watch the "blue tears". In addition, a clear and windless night is more conducive to observing this phenomenon. In short, Pingtan Island's "Blue Tears" is an intoxicating natural wonder. Choose the right time, place and equipment, bring awe of nature, and enjoy this wonderful sight!
