The Boiling Lake

This lake is located in Dominica and it is one of the most dangerous places to dive in. Why? It’s obviously because of the scalding temperature of the water. The reason for this phenomenon is the presence of magma under the surface. The said magma makes the water reach the boiling point which literally causes the whole lake to boil. If you’ve experienced getting burned by hot water before, then you probably have a good idea what it would feel like if you jump into this lake. The pain would be excruciating as the hot water surrounds your body. It would be best to avoid partaking in what would probably be the hottest swim of your life. How about going somewhere cooler, but equally dangerous?
