The bioluminescent sea will glow when it's disturbed by a wave breaking or a splash in the water at night. Algae bloom sea sparkle events are caused by calm and warm sea conditions. But you can see specks of bioluminescence when it's created nearby by a light-producing marine creature.

Answer:
If you see a bright blue glow in coastal ocean waters at night, it could be Noctiluca scintillans. Also known as sea sparkle, these bioluminescent plankton float under the surface and flash brightly when disturbed, possibly to scare off or distract predators. Since running your hand through the water, swimming in it, or even boating disturbs the little guys, it’s easy to get them riled up and glowing.
Sea sparkle is made up of critters so tiny that a single drop of water can contain thousands of them. But they’re still fairly big for single-celled organisms, so if you catch some, you can actually see them with a microscope or even a strong magnifying glass.
They typically live in warmer seas, both subtropical and tropical, and are more abundant when it’s warm. They live mostly near coasts, and you’re likelier to find them near the mouths of rivers, especially following heavy rains.
