Black Hole is a deep cave, cavern, and drop-off system located off the coast of Naples. The site features a significant depth range from 20 to 68 metres, requiring advanced technical skills and mandatory cave certification. Divers navigate an overhead environment where visibility fluctuates between 10 and 50 metres. The site is accessible only by boat, situated over 43 kilometres from shore. Due to the depth and potential for temperatures as low as 18C, drysuits or thick wetsuits are recommended. The habitat supports various reef fish and invertebrates. Divers must maintain strict depth management and remain alert for shark activity throughout the dive.

The site is located 12 kilometres offshore from Boynton Beach and requires boat access.
