THE BLUE ROOM
Curaçao
The Blue Room is a blue-lit cave on Curacao. You can dive or snorkel in the cave in an almost surrealistic blue environment. Actually it is a cavern, because you can ascent in it. The Blue Room is lit in it's unique way because the sunlight can reach the inside of the cave only through the underwater entrance, while passing the clear blue water on its way up. For underwater photographers, the Blue Room is a gift from the sky. They call the light perfect and a must dive, if you have an eye for these kinds of natural phenomena.
Particulars
The Blue Room can be reached on foot or by swimming. A boat dive is the most practical. The entrance lies 20 centimeters underwater. Once inside you'll be enchanted by the blue spectacle. Enjoy the light show against the irregularly shaped rock walls with here and there beautiful green and orange coral tones and schools of fish. Especially the schools of copper sweepers are doing well here. They are beautiful bronze-colored fish that seem to swim upside down and reflect in the blue. If you have visited the cave, go looking for the wreckage that is also nearby.
Warnings
Watch out for boats. Use a buoy. Blue Room can be busy at times, there is a lot of snorkelling going on here.
