Profile


The freshwater that rises to the surface under pressure that is consistent in this region has eroded a weakness in the limestone to form The Chasm. This same process has formed the large underwater cavern known as The Cathedral creating its majestic white walls of sculptured and scalloped limestone.

For divers it provides an unique experience as the water is entered via the lake, you can often see eels at the bottom prior to descending through Chasm.
