Blue Hole – An Experience Only Found in Santa Rosa
In our beautiful City of Santa Rosa, is an aqua dark blue oasis called the Blue Hole. It is connected underground by a vast network of water sources that gives Santa Rosa its reputation of being a city of natural lakes. The Blue Hole area became a National fish hatchery in 1932 and, by the 1970s, became a Recreation Area and expanded to become the Blue Hole Dive and Conference Center.
A natural source of clear pure spring water that – with 100′ visibility as the water continually renews itself every six hours with a constant 62 degrees Fahrenheit and a constant inflow of over 3,000 gallons per minute. The surface is 80′ wide and expands to 130 feet in diameter at the bottom. A circular bell-shaped pool that is a spring and a sinkhole in one. As Santa Rosa is at an elevation of 4,616 feet above sea level, divers training in the Blue Hole have to use highaltitude dive tables to computer their profile and decompression stops while diving. Swimmers, cliff jumpers, and bathers enter above for free, with sometimes no lifeguards present.
