Just 45 minutes from Stuart Cove's Dive Bahamas off New Providence Island sits a very special treat for divers: an ocean Blue Hole.<br /><br />Formed during the Ice Age, the Blue Hole is a freshwater spring that gushes out of the underwater limestone to produce a unique, self-contained ecosystem surrounded by shallow reef.<br /><br />The Blue Hole extends to over 250 feet deep and is filled with wide cavern-like crevices where divers can swim in to see lobsters and small reef fish that find shelter there.<br /><br />Marine life is always abundant at the Blue Hole with water temperatures in the 70's. Caribbean Reef Sharks and Nurse Sharks cruise the area year-round. In spring and summer, the warmer waters attract schooling docile Atlantic Sharp nose Sharks and large populations of colorful fish.<br /><br />Suitable for divers of all levels, Stuart Cove's trip to the Blue Hole is a unique experience sure to be etched in your memory long after the ink fades in your log book.<br /><br />Dive Nassau's Blue Hole today with Stuart Cove's Dive Bahamas.
