Barbados Reef Diving

Most divers favor the wrecks over the island's low profile reefs (locally called "bars"). The reefs are mostly a forest of sea whips, big sea fans and huge brain corals. Compared to the big coral mounds of Bonaire or Cozumel, these formations may be disappointing at first glance, but they are teeming with fish and small marine life ideal for macro photography.

Folkstone Underwater Park

Snorkelers will find plenty of good sightseeing in addition to shallow wrecks like the Berwyn tug. The Folkstone Underwater Park is a shallow trail that leads right from shore, with above water markers to guide the way and underwater markers to explain what you're seeing.
