Dean's Blue Hole

Dean's Blue Hole Review

Dean's Blue Hole is the most amazing sight on the island. It is the deepest blue hole in the world (663 feet) and is surrounded by hills and a superb beach. The shallows at the edge of the hole are perfect for snorkeling, and tropical fish of all varieties can be spotted. Diving contests, without use of any breathing apparatus, are held here each year, and divers come from all over the world to challenge the record.

To find the blue hole, watch forthe well-labeled white walls on your left (east) after passing through Scrub Hill. Go through the entrance and drive over a steep hill. At the bottom you will find two dirt roads going to the right. Both will lead to the site, but take the second one, which is sandier and the easiest to follow. If you end up at a gazebo, this is not the place. Get back on the sandy road; you are just about there.
