About Blue Cave:

Blue Cave has been one of Croatia’s most prized tourist attractions what seems to be forever. First portrayed and described by Baron Eugen von Ransonet, Blue Cave was originally only accessible by diving below sea level, which brought upon a suggestion that an artificial entrance large enough for small boats be built in 1884.

The blue light/aura in the cave being created by that submarine-like opening in the ceiling, creating an iridescent blue glow all around the cave. There’s also a stone like bar connecting two walls of the cave which visitors can clearly see below the waterline, both in underwater and above water photographs.
