Detailed itinerary

Blue Hole Mineral Spring sits beneath a cavernous opening in Jamaica’s terrain and is completely encased by Karst limestone. Naturally occurring minerals in the limestone (known for their therapeutic value) act as an underground filter for the steady upwelling of water, leaving behind a luxuriously pure bath of minerals for guests to enjoy. The Blue Hole is located about 30 min. from Negril near the community of Little Bay. Experience the thrill of jumping off a cliff (or climb down a ladder) 22 ft. to swim in the hole's cool mineral water reputed to have therapeutic properties that energize and refresh. Watch the lifeguards leap from overhanging trees to dive 55 ft. into the spring. There is plenty of room to swim and float in this 40 ft by 50 ft. pool and the depth are 35 ft. A separate swimming pool is a feed by the same mineral water.
