In many places, the bedrock, which is limestone formed from coral, is right at the surface. Underground, it is filled with watery hollows which, when at the surface make for some tricky hiking in many areas. The water table rarely drops more then a foot or two beneath the surface and in areas that are covered with water during the wet season, fish and other fresh water aquatic creatures hide in the subterranean hollows during the dry season.
