Sunken Plane Fuselage Reef Belize in beside a volcanic reef overhang near Belize City

Sunken Plane Fuselage Reef Belize

by Jeanette Hardin

Hard coastal glare cuts through the water, illuminating the rusted, sunken fuselage of an airplane resting beside a volcanic reef overhang near Belize City. The metal skin is pitted with orange corrosion, its open windows now serving as doorways for schools of reef fish. Bright yellow and blue stripes flash against the dull gray of the aircraft as they swim through the hollowed interior. Plankton haze softens the background, creating layers of depth that recede into the distance. The rainy season water holds a greenish tint, diffusing the harsh sunlight. Tiny particles float in the beam, catching the light as the fish drift weightlessly within the submerged structure. The final edge of the fuselage fades into the murk, blending with the rocky seabed.
