The Tablas Island Blue Hole is an underwater sinkhole located off northeast Tablas Island below the Gorda Point Lighthouse. It is the only known blue hole in the Philippines and, with an entrance in shallow water, it is possible to free-dive into the top part of the hole.[2] The bottom of the hole is at a depth of about 30 meters.[3][4] <>not edited past this point<>
