Visitors flock to the tourist centres of Nassau and Freeport. But for divers and cave explorers, the Bahamas offer highlights of a different kind: the mystical “Blue Holes”. Joining a group of experienced divers and speleologists, a German television team sets off into the bush to discover the secrets of the hidden caves. And there’s a great deal to discover: enchanting underwater landscapes, animals which are found nowhere else in the world, relics of bygone ages that cast light on the geological and human history of the Bahamas. The divers find the skull of a Lucayan, for example, a member of the eth- nic group that populated the islands up to the arrival of Columbus and – to the explorer’s eternal discredit – disappeared virtually without trace within decades. But the scientific expedition ends in tragedy, a stinging reminder of the dangers attached to advancing into the fascinating secret depths of these caves. Rob Parker, a highly experienced diver and underwater cameraman, suffers a fatal accident and does not return from his last dive.
