Explore the Witconcrete on Turneffe Atoll, Belize

A TASA Supported Project


The witconcrete is one of the largest ships in the Caribbean measuring 375 ft. in length, 56ft. width and 38ft. height. Built after World War II for sugar and molasses storage throughout Central America, this now weathered, rust streaked concrete ship has taken on another life as Belize's newest dive site.

Visit Blackbird Resort in Belize

Located 1 minute east of Blackbird Caye Resort, the dive site, called "the oasis" was intentionally chosen to eliminate coral reef impact. Drawing the attention of international divers and snorkelers , as well as creating a natural, protecting haven for our vibrant wildlife, the witconcrete is cemented in our underwater landscape.
