Description
Be sure to read the Special Notes further down this page for important requirements and restriction.
This blowhole is the largest marine geyser in North America and the second largest in the world. Legend has it that a young gray whale that was separated from its pod blew a stream of water through its blowhole to signal its missing friends and eventually turned into the rock from which this natural wonder can be observed. The geyser is formed by waves crashing into an underwater cave, where the combined air and water pressure rocket the water through the open top. This remarkable display makes a thunderous roar and can shoot plumes of water over 100 feet high.
