About Blue Hole Park
Blue Hole Park is part of the Walsingham protected area, between Harrington Sound and Castle Harbour, near the Crystal Cave. It is one of Bermuda’s wildest areas, with dense woodland, mangroves and limestone pitted with holes that give rise to the region’s caves.
Short dirt-and-stone trails pass by brackish ponds of blue-green water that connect to the sea through underground passages and host fish. In several spots, the roofs of ancient caves have collapsed, creating open grottoes and sinkholes.
The park is public and has no commercial facilities. Because the terrain is uneven and there are loose stones and edges of sinkholes, visits require care and closed-toe shoes.
