👉 Fotos ior, short for "floating islands" or "floating islands of light," is a visual phenomenon where bright, luminous spots appear to float above calm water surfaces. These lights are often mistaken for ships, boats, or other vessels but are actually caused by various natural and man-made sources. Common causes include oil slicks, which reflect sunlight; bioluminescent organisms like dinoflagellates that emit light when disturbed; and human activities such as boat engines, fireworks, and even certain types of plastic waste. The effect is most pronounced at night and in areas with calm waters, creating a mesmerizing, almost magical display that has captivated observers around the world.
