Swim in a Glowing Pool in Blue Cave, Croatia | When On Earth – Places to See, Things to Do, Gear to Get

Swim in a Glowing Pool in Blue Cave, Croatia | When On Earth – Places to See, Things to Do, Gear to Get | Päivät | Scoop.it

The Blue Cave or Modra Špilja in the small island of Bisevo, Croatia is one of the most extraordinary caves in the world.

For the most part, it’s unlike your usual cave that’s damp, dark, and brown-colored. As you might have guessed, Bisevo’s Cave isblue, but not because of some abnormality in the rock’s mineral content or some blue organism covering the cavern walls. For all you know, it would be dark, damp, and brown-colored all the same, if not for this hole at the bottom which allows sunlight to filter in through the waters.
