The cave is approximately 70 meters high, 40m submerged, where the “bathing” area is 35m long and 20 wide.
The Blue Well was discovered in 1920 by miners, one of the first habitants before the region. However, the place only became a tourist attraction in 1994.
Seeing the rock formations with extreme clarity, despite the depth (varies from 3.5 m to 16 m), causes a kind of vertigo. The impression is not of being on the surface, but down at the bottom of the well, so transparent is the water.

.
The Poço Azul is located on a 25 ha site in Nova Redenção and is 80 meters long with two 20 m2 caves. It is estimated that this area corresponds to only one third of all that there is to be explored in the cave.
Floating can be done only in the front part of the well, delimited by ropes.
Although the sensitive albino catfish also inhabit the Blue Well, bathing is allowed. According to the Braga family, which operates the attraction, this is due to the rapid renewal of the water, whose flow rate (3 cm3/s) would be higher than in the Enchanted well.
