When divers float through the hollowed-out limestone rock at the Exuma Cays Land and Sea Park, free from the constraints of gravity, natural light pours in through gaps created by the eroding rock bathing the azure blue water in sunlight and moonlight. The cave ceiling in some places is low, just above the diver’s head and in other areas it opens up to a staggering 20ft making it an exhilarating place to explore the wildlife and pristine beauty. When divers float through the hollowed-out limestone rock at the Exuma Cays Land and Sea Park, (Thunderball cave is pictured) free from the constraints of gravity, natural light pours in through gaps created by the eroding rock bathing the azure blue water in sunlight and moonlight

Mystical, Magical & Magnificent Monasteries in Meteora (20 Pics) The caves in Meteora, Greece, had inhabitants for fifty millennia, but due to raids, “hermit monks” moved to the safety of sandstone rock pinnacles in the 9th century and began building monasteries. More monks and nuns came, building more monasteries perched high upon the cliffs. Wikipedia reports, “Access to the monasteries was originally (and deliberately) difficult, requiring either long ladders lashed together or large nets used to haul up both goods and people. This required quite a leap of faith — the ropes were replaced, so the story goes, only ‘when the Lord let them break.’” UNESCO World Heritage says, “The net in which intrepid pilgrims were hoisted up vertically alongside the 1,224 ft. cliff where the Varlaam monastery dominates the valley symbolizes the fragility of a traditional way of life that is threatened with extinction.” Photo #1 by Vaggelis Vlahos A view of Meteora monasteries in Greece.

The design concept of infinity pools originated in France, but the very expensive vanishing edge swimming pools are usually found nowadays in gorgeous locations like exotic resorts or exclusive estates.
