Blue Holes

"A blue hole is a cave (inland) or underwater sinkhole. They are also called vertical caves .....Blue holes are roughly circular, steep-walled depressions, and so named for the dramatic contrast between the dark blue, deep waters of their depths and the lighter blue of the shallows around them." (Wiki - see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_hole )
