Barbados Best Dive Sites
The most popular dives off Barbados are on the sheltered west and south coasts of the island, which are alive with shallow fringing and banking reefs.
Diving in Barbados
Unlike many of the islands in the Caribbean which are of volcanic origin, Barbados was formed primarily from coral. Diving conditions, including visibility, are good year-round. The average water temperature is mid 80Fs in summer (mid-Apr to Nov) and high 70Fs in winter (Dec to mid-April).
Barbados is an excellent destination for divers of all levels - beginners learning to dive, those looking to get some scuba experience, and seasoned divers. Most dive shops in Barbados offer a full range of PADI certified courses for any skill level. And even the most experienced divers will benefit from teaming up with a local dive shop to locate the best sites & get insider tips!
Highlights: coral reefs, eels, rays, turtles and barracudas.
