Ocean Hole
A deep-blue tidal blue hole in the town of Rock Sound, connected to the sea underground, where you can feed fish or jump in to swim.
Ocean Hole lies east of Rock Sound in southern Eleuthera. It is a nearly round inland blue hole about 30 metres across, its depth unknown (legend says it has no bottom). It connects to the sea through underground passages, its water level rises and falls with the tides, and many sea fish live inside, such as groupers, snappers and angelfish. Steps and a small park have been built around the hole, where visitors can feed the fish (bring bread), jump in from the platform to swim, or snorkel. Admission is free, with no lifeguards, so take care. Rock Sound has a small airport, a supermarket and restaurants for stocking up on the way.
