Eleuthera, where the Caribbean Sea sinks dramatically in the Atlantic Ocean

Both waters are separated by a strip of rock only 30 meters wide
Eleuthera (Eluteria in "peasant Spanish") is one of several islands in the Bahamas archipelago, about 80 kilometers east of Nassau, the capital. It is long - about 180 km - and thin - only about 1.6 km wide in some places.
The blue waters of the shallow waters of the Caribbean Sea on one side of the island stand out in stark contrast to the deep blue of the Atlantic Ocean thousands of feet deep. One of the best places to see this extraordinary juxtaposition is in the Glass Window Bridge.

The Glass Window Bridge is about two miles east of Lower Bogue and joins Gregory Town and Lower Bogue at the narrowest point on the island. It is one of the few places on earth where you can compare to the blue waters of the Atlantic Ocean on one side of the road and the tranquil turquoise waters of the Exuma Sound (Caribbean) on the other side, separated by a strip of rock Only 30 meters wide.

A concrete bridge over the natural rock bridge connects the north and south points of Eleuthera along a paved road. The Glass Window Bridge is one of the most visited places on the island

For centuries, there was a connection by a natural stone bridge between the north and south of Eleuthera. Then, in the 1940s, several hurricanes were combined to destroy the natural bridge and a concrete bridge was built as a replacement. For decades, this bridge remained functional with periodic repairs but, in 1992 and 1999, the hurricanes caused significant damage to the bridge. After Hurricane Floyd in 1999, there was virtually nothing left of the original Glass Window Bridge. Although the bridge was repaired and Queen's Highway reconnected within a few months, Eleuthera's geography changed forever. Even after a decade, workers are kept busy reinforcing the coastline in order to re-level the severely eroded asphalt..

One should be very careful when visiting the Glass Window Bridge and the surrounding cliff areas. It is known that giant waves unexpectedly arrive and sweep the bridge and the nearby cliffs. Since there are no nearby reefs along that side of the ocean to wipe out these giant waves as they arrive, the waves can strike with great force and it has been known that they not only snatch people towards the ocean, but also The vehicles.

The earth is suffering from the continuous erosion of the force of the water striking from high heights. To the left, approaching the bridge from the south, you see a hole that throws incredibly high water, alluding to the force of the water below.
