Calling all ocean enthusiasts for an epic week of underwater exploration, conservation efforts, and a whole lot of fun!
Kick things off with a clean conscience! Join us on Sunday, August 18th for a beach clean-up at 8 am.
After this good deed, dive right in (pun intended!) with snorkeling, discover scuba diving, or try freediving from 9:30 am – 4:30 pm.
That night, celebrate the official opening ceremony at 6 pm – a chance to meet fellow divers and get pumped for the week ahead!
The underwater adventures continue throughout the week! Explore the fascinating local wrecks and ruins on Monday’s double-dive, then push your limits with a deep dive on Tuesday. Tuesday also offers a chance to become a citizen scientist with the Sea Turtle Survey.
Calling all lionfish hunters! Wednesday is your day to join the lionfish hunt (two dives!) and help protect the reefs. In the afternoon, chill out and swap stories at the Lionfish Raft-Up!
Show off your photography skills on Thursday’s photo competition dives (two dives!), then explore the nocturnal wonders of the deep with a night dive on Thursday evening.
Friday brings a special kind of underwater clean-up with the “Dive Against Debris” adventure. In the afternoon, test your exploring skills (and maybe your luck!) with the fun Bingo Dive.
Save your energy for Saturday’s grand finale! Witness the creativity and teamwork on display at the Crazy Recycled Boat Race. In the afternoon, experience the thrill of freediving, and top it all off with a relaxing sunset catamaran cruise – the perfect way to unwind and reminisce about an incredible week under the Barbadian sea!
So, don your fins, grab your sunscreen, and get ready for an unforgettable adventure!
