Visit Belize’s Great Blue Hole

You’ve probably seen pictures or heard of it. It’s terrifyingly beautiful. It’s the Great Blue Hole.

Found right here in Belize, the world-famous sinkhole is just off our shores in the middle of Lighthouse Reef. At over 400 feet deep and over 900 feet across it’s the largest in the world and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The natural wonder is a renowned dive destination. Marine life found in the hole includes nurse sharks, reef sharks, large groupers, and even the elusive hammerhead shark. Divers are required a certain level of experience before diving the hole due to how deep the dive goes.

It’s believed that the hole was once a large series of caverns above the sea that was eventually submerged as there are stalactites and different column formations found within it. This piece of geological history is a “bucket list” destination for many, and no wonder when it can be seen all the way from space.
