It is known to be a vertical cave too. There is a steep drop, which implies that you will find the center to be dark blue, hence named Blue Hole. Blue Holes are believed to be formed in the last Ice Age. Belize’s Blue Hole is the largest, and the most amazing one in the whole world.A fact of interest here is that blue holes don’t offer much of a circulation, so that little or no oxygen is found at the depth of the whole. Hence, only few sea water creatures live in there.
