China releases report on rare coral reef blue hole in Huangyan Dao

China's Ministry of Ecology and Environment on Thursday released the 2025 Survey Report on the Blue Hole of Huangyan Dao. The report shows that the Huangyan Dao blue hole is a marine blue hole of the world-rare coral reef growth structure type, and it is also the first coral reef blue hole ever identified in China. Its entrance covers an area of approximately 1,491.7 square meters, with a maximum diameter of 56.3 meters and a depth of 16.6 meters. Its internal structure is funnel-shaped, with a narrow bottom and layered water turbidity. Preliminary geochronological studies indicate that this blue hole formed at least 3,200 years ago. The Huangyan Dao blue hole and its surrounding waters are rich in biodiversity, the report said. #SeeChina
