The Blue Hole is about a half hour away from Negril, Jamaica. Just as the name suggests, it is literally a hole in the earth’s surface. Upon peering inside, you discover that it is also a portal into paradise with sparkling turquoise water below. Those brave enough take a deep breath and jump twenty-two feet into the spring. For those who would prefer otherwise, you are welcome to take the ladder in and out of the deep grotto. Mineral water is known for its many healing properties. It is believed to help relieve aches and pains as well as calm the mind. While it is not scientifically proven that the waters of the Blue Hole have any benefits, you will leave the spring feeling energized and refreshed by the cool water and in awe of the stunning scenery.
