Occasionally they sang softly; occasionally they turned cartwheels down by the moving streak of phosphorescence.
'Down' is linked to 'by', not to the cartwheels: they turned cartwheels down by the phosphorescence. In other words, they performed circular sideways handsprings (as Lexico defines cartwheels) beside the moving streak of phosphorescence.
