Blue Hole Scuba 3-Tank

Leap into your first dive at the Blue Hole, which was once a massive dry cave that formed above land over 10,000 years ago during the ice age.  Moreover, the stalactites are within the Blue Hole scuba dive. These stalactites highlight the evidence of this once-dry cave since stalactites cannot form underwater!   Then, with rising sea levels, the cave flooded and the roof collapsed.

Devoid of color and home to only the bravest, the Blue Hole is over 450 feet deep and about 1000 feet across and is surrounded by fringing reefs which form an almost perfect circle.  Indeed, consider the wonder of the Belize Blue Hole! Experience stepping into the geological past.  Besides this, for astounding color and vibrancy, the other two dives around Lighthouse Reef seal the deal! Vibrant coral formations teem with marine life.  Afterward, the dives at Halfmoon Wall and Long Caye Wall offer an unforgettable underwater immersion.  The trip is a full day with three guided dive excursions. https://belize.com/belize-blue-hole/
