I chose this resort based on largely two facts - they were the only resort that offered babysitting while both parents dived, and they were close to the Blue Hole. The transfers to the island went without a hitch and we arrived in time to do our first dive on the same day. All staff are more than friendly and... More

We spent the second week of our honeymoon here. We were looking for somewhere with good diving and that allowed us to relax after a week of activities in the Jungle. Blackbird was the perfect place. We travelled there by Boat from the Radisson Hotel. Shaun, the boat captain was extremely friendly and happy to answer questions as we travelled... More

My partner recently just went here and had a fabulous time. The resort, island, and sea are breathtakingly gorgeous, and the managers, diving instructors, and staff were incredibly warm and hospitable. In particular, Nancy and Richard, the managers (and our diving instructors) helped us become PADI certified scuba divers and eased my intense fears of diving. We had intended to... More

Went there to dive for a week with a friend. Flew from Montreal to Belize City, than we took the charter boat witch is also the same boat we use for diving. We were greated by dolphins on the 1h30 long boat ride to Turneffe Atoll. Temperature was perfect all week, with a nice wind. No need to use the... More

We had a very good time! The dive masters were very knowledgeable about good locations to snorkel and also were helpful to inexperienced snorkelers. We where there for a full week, so almost got over-filled with snorkeling. There isn't much else to do on this small island, but it was great to just relax - bring a book, etc. Scheduled... More

We actuallly flew to Blackbird after a Blue Hole flyover which was so worth it! Nancy & richard the managers on the island are awesome. They are doing a... More

We spent a wonderful week snorkeling, kayaking, and poking around the Caye. The only problem was that the week went by too quickly. The staff who took us snorkeling were so very, very helpful, even holding the hands of the less experienced, teaching and guiding us as we swam. All the staff were so accommodating to make sure we enjoyed... More

I just finished a 5-day trip to Blackbird Caye Dive Resort, and it was fantastic! I traveled to Blackbird Caye on a Groupon, and it was an incredible experience. We arrived into Belize City and were met by Mr. Moreno who graciously drove us to the Radisson Hotel and Marina. We than waited for a bit until "Big Bird" came... More

We returned to Blackbird for the 5th time last week for snorkeling. It's as good as ever -- and a little bit better even. They have made some minor improvements - bathrobes (in the deluxe cabanas are very nice to have; the office is also a good additions where you can get good WiFi reception (last year we had to...
