Guardian Blue Hole on New Providence is a shallow inland cave system offering a unique overhead environment for divers. The site maintains a consistent depth of 3 to 4 metres, with visibility typically ranging between 5 and 10 metres. Water temperatures remain stable year-round, fluctuating between 25 and 30 degrees Celsius. Due to the cave structure, this site presents an overhead environment that requires careful positioning and air management.

Access is possible from the shore, though divers should remain aware of potential currents and the specific hazards associated with confined underwater spaces.

Because this is an overhead environment, even at shallow depths, take a guided tour rather than entering independently, especially if you have limited experience with cave or cavern diving. The calm, currentless water means conditions are consistent year-round, so timing your visit around weather rather than tides or seasons is all you need to consider.
Access may require local guidance.
