Ill keep this one short. Staying in the Americas but going a bit down south. Belize. Some 70 kms from the city of Belize, lies this beautiful "Great Blue Hole".
The hole is exactly circular in shape, about 300 meters wide and 124 meters deep. It was formed over years of Quaternary Glaciation when sea levels were much lower. The Great Blue hole is a part of the Belize Barrier Reef system and is a UNESCO World Heritage site. It is also one of the world's best scuba diving sites.
Though this place is extraordinarily beautiful, I would't necessarily like going here. I should have learnt swimming when I was young.
To know how this was formed, read this.
