An installation for offshore storage of hazardous waste, in particular radioactive waste comprises (i) a concrete base body (11), which is transportable on the water as a floating body and adapted to rest on the seabed at a storage site, said base body being provided with interior storage spaces (S, K) for the waste and at least some of the storage spaces being arranged to be located below the water surface, and (ii) a concrete terminal body (10) which is transportable on the water as a floating body and adapted to rest on the seabed at the storage site, positioned by the side of and adjacent to the base body (11) and connected to the base body. The base body (11) and the terminal body (10) include communication ways (14) adapted to be connected to one another and to the storage spaces (S, K) of the base body, and the terminal body (10) is adapted to have facilities (15, 16) located above the water surface for receiving waste from water or air borne transportation means.
