An Amazing Fact

Blue Lake, located in Nelson Lakes National Park in New Zealand,

is thought to be the clearest natural fresh lake in the world.

The cold waters in this boomerang-shaped lake have been

scientiically measured for clarity, with underwater visibility up
to 260 feet, or the same as distilled water. The optically clear

water has a blue-violet hue, thus its name. The lake is considered

sacred to the local Māori people and bathing, swimming, and

diving there are prohibited. Scientists attribute the clarity of the

water to its passage underground from nearby Lake Constance,

which ilters out almost all the particles suspended in water.

“And he showed me a pure river

of water of life, clear as crystal,

proceeding from the throne of God

and of the Lamb” (Revelation 22:1).
