Blue Holes - Palau Diving

The unique geoligical formation of Blue Holes is truly spectacular. There are four holes on top of the reef that all drop down and join into one very large cavern. The bottom underneath the holes begins at 80 feet (24m) and is as deep as 140+ feet(40+m). The cavern is so big that there's no feeling of claustrophobia and, depending on which hole you drop into, the dive can be done as shallow as 50 feet (15m). As you swim into the reef and under the holes, you will notice that the fish swim upside down on the ceiling. The best way to view the holes is to just roll over and look up.

After viewing all of the holes, you swim to one of the exits on the wall where - at 70 feet (21m) and at 45 feet (14m). As you exit the holes you will turn left and dive down the wall towards Blue Corner. The thing that makes Blue Holes different from every other Blue Hole dive in the world is that it is right next to Blue Corner! The wall from Blue Holes blends into the wall that approaches Blue Corner. Depending on the currents and your air consumption you can enjoy two dives in one, getting the best of both worlds - a beautiful coral formation and the action of Blue Corner.
