Iconic Guam blue-hole dive with a deep shaft exit.
Iconic Guam blue-hole dive with a deep shaft exit.
Blue Hole - Guam is a boat-access blue-hole and wall dive off the Orote Peninsula, where a shallow reef-top opening drops into a vertical shaft and opens onto the outer wall through a deeper window. It is best suited to experienced scuba divers who are comfortable with depth, current-aware exits, and a direct route back to the reef edge; the site is famous for its dramatic shape and open-ocean feel rather than for a long coral cruise.
Site Conditions
Safety Notes
Treat the site as an advanced blue-hole dive with a planned exit onto the wall. Stay inside your training limits and keep the boat pickup plan clear before entry.
Access Restrictions
Boat access only; sheer cliffs make shore entry impractical.
Legal Notes
Use a guide and a clear exit plan because the site transitions from shaft to wall at depth.
