About This Dive Spot

The Naufragio Blackadder is the wreck of a 70-meter clipper sailboat that sank in 1905 after its moorings were loosened by a storm, leading it to crash into the coral reefs near Boa Viagem Beach. The wreck lies at a depth of 9 meters, where its structure remains largely intact and visible. This site is home to various marine life, including seahorses and batfish, which often seek refuge among the wreckage. The site is easily accessible and is a popular choice among divers in Bahia.
