Haha yeah I was!!! oops!

LOL... I was going to chime in that I had been diving in the Grotto in Tobermory for 40 years, as of next May, and I've never noticed a bell in there!

There are a number of small cave systems in the area... Leopard Frog which starts in the middle of a cow pasture, Spider Hole and one near the Lighthouse, that I am aware of.
 
I was just there last week. There is a sort of diving bell mounted to the ceiled at arounf 30 ft maybe. There is also a tunnel that goes around the back of the cavern that takes you to depths of near 100 ft. I can't iagine doing this with out SCUBA and a good dive light as the tunnel itself is not lit. You could free dive the cavern though without equipment. All in all it's a pretty cool dive... but cold... I was pretty chilly after 30 minutes in a 3mm suit.


LOL... You're off about 2200 kilometers. But a damn fine description of the BLUE grotto!
