The Great Blue Hole - a hole in the world's
largest blue - is a big drain on the coast of
Belize. It is located near the center of Lighthouse
Reef, a small atoll 60 miles (96 kilometers) east
of mainland Belize. This hole perfectly round,
more than 1,000 feet (305 meters) and depth of
480 feet (146 meters).
The Blue Hole is the result of repeated ruins of a
limestone cave system that formed during the sea
level lower during the last ice age journey.
Geographical phenomena remarkable this is one
the most spectacular dive sites in the world,
made famous by Jacques-Yves Cousteau who
declared it was one of the best scuba diving the
best of the 4 sites on Earth. In 1971, he took ship
and submarine Calypso to the hole to the depth
chart and examine stalactites hang suspended
from the wall.
Contrary to rumors, Cousteau was not losing his
son Philippe in here - he died elsewhere in a
helicopter crash. Cousteau also did not use
explosives to destroy the patch reefs at Calypso
navigation at the Blue Hole.
