Dive Site 4 Blue Hole - Welcome to Mountain Goat Diving

The Blue Hole. What can you say, this really is mountain goat diving. It is yet another fantastic dive, but getting there is hard work.


You kit up in the car park way off up the hill (next to possibly the oldest but best maintianed buses ever):

and then the path linking down to the Azure Window and Blue hole is navigated in 30 degree heat, in full wet suit and dive gear over rocks and boulders (vanessa, those are REALLY BIG PEBBLES) to what looks like a really nice blue rock pool



However, once in the Blue Hole you realise it is not just a nice blue rock pool but a hole in the top of an old submerged cave and in fact goes down to about 22m. Looking back up through the blue hole and it is just as picturesque as teh view on the surface



We then had a lovely swim aroud, and back up through a chimney and back to the blue hole for a gracless scramble out on to the rocks. Well worth the hard work getting over the rocks.
