About Virgin Hole

An Advanced deep dive and technical cavern combo, this is the largest of the blue holes. There are some unusual twists and turns in the reef, making for fun swim-throughs. The 25' entry shaft takes you down 90'. Looking up from the bottom, is, well, indescribable. Exits - like on a plane - are on either side. The northern wall exposes four canyons with smaller caves to explore while the other exits the reef to the west. Visibility vacillates between 40 and 100'. Location: Between New Drop-off and Blue corner - best dived high tide.
