Blue Cave

A sea-carved grotto on Biševo Island where sunlight entering through a submerged opening turns the entire interior a saturated; glowing electric blue; the silver-white reflection is caused by light bouncing off the limestone seabed; enter by small wooden boat at 11 am; the water appears to illuminate the oars from within while the sound of the swell echoes off the low-hanging basalt ceiling.
