Sapphire Blue Hole (North Eleuthera)

A deep inland blue hole in the bush near Preacher's Cave, where locals jump from the rocky rim into dark blue water.
Practical
Coordinate from the Eleuthera Map site marker 'Blue Hole aka Sapphire Hole' ('inland not far from Preacher's Cave'). Reach by car on the road toward Preacher's Cave. No lifeguard, ladders or facilities; check depth and how to climb out before jumping. Combine with Preacher's Cave, Tay Bay and the north-shore beaches on a land day from Spanish Wells via the Gene's Bay ferry.
