Portions of the following information were taken from Florida Geological Survey Bulletin 31.

The Jewish Hole is a submarine spring located in the Gulf of Mexico about 1 mi W. of Hammock point, 3 mi WSW. of Aripeka, and about 600 ft S. of the "Aripeka Channel," Pasco County. Wetterhall (1965 p. 29) wrote that the rim of the spring is approximately circular in shape and about 40 ft in diameter at about 4 ft below mean tide. The bottom slopes toward the spring opening to a depth of about 10 ft below approximate mean tide. The spring hole is an irregular, vertical pipe about 15 ft in diameter and 148 ft deep below the general bottom, which is about 4 ft below approximate mean tide. A vigorous boil at low tide becomes a "slick" at high tide. The flow has not been measured.
