About this site
Blue Hole is a dive site on Madeira where divers enter through a hole that leads into a tunnel about 20 metres long. The tunnel is full of life, including trumpetfish, lobsters and moray eels.
At the exit there are huge shoals of fish such as yellowfin grunts and cow breams, which gives the site the nickname of the fish tornado. With a little luck, divers also meet stingrays, eagle rays and a monk seal.
