The Lost Blue Hole, off New Providence near Nassau, is a dramatic vertical sinkhole with a rim around 12 metres and a depth of over 60 metres. Unlike many blue holes, life continues around the lip, where sandy grass beds, coral heads, and ledges create a rich transition zone.
What to see
Blacknose sharks may gather seasonally, while nurse sharks, loggerhead turtles, stingrays, seahorses, blennies, nudibranchs, juvenile fish, crabs, shrimp, banded jawfish, Seminole gobies, and tobacco fish may be seen around the rim.
When To Go Diving
Water temperature
November to May is the strongest overall Bahamas season, but late spring to summer is especially notable for blacknose sharks at this site. Water is typically around 24–29°C, with visibility often 20–40 metres outside unsettled weather.
