Blue Hole (Bahamas)

The Blue Hole in the Bahamas is a large, underwater limestone cavern located near the coast of Andros Island. It appears as a circular, deep blue sinkhole on the ocean floor, often over 200 feet wide and 200 feet deep. Formed over thousands of years by erosion and rising sea levels, it’s a popular site for scuba diving, attracting explorers with its clear waters, unique geological formations, and diverse marine life. The Blue Hole is also famous for its striking appearance from above, offering a stunning contrast against the surrounding shallow turquoise waters.
