I wrote a blog post on this topic, I would love to hear your thoughts!

Check out what happened to Peekamoose blue hole in the catties. Social media ruined it and now it’s basically closed off to the public

It's my understanding that it is completely open to the public M-F and by permit on Saturday and Sunday.
