Wreck_md

The Berwyn

The Berwyn, a French tugboat, now rests at the bottom of Carlisle Bay just of the southwestern coast of Barbados. Since sinking in the early 1900’s, the ship has become home to frogfish, arrow crabs, seahorses, wrasses, and other marine life. At a depth of 25 feet, this wreck is great for snorkeling, and the good visibility makes it an excellent spot for photography. More Info

Bell Buoy

Off the southwest coast lies this wall dive, which begins on a 40-foot shelf and then drops off to 70 feet. Turtles and great schools of fish swim amongst the sea fans, staghorn, vase sponges, and large brain corals. Occasionally, stingrays make appearances in the area. More Info

Day 2 - Wreck Dive

The Pamir

In efforts to create an artificial reef, Barbados dive operators sunk the 150-foot Pamir 30 feet beneath the surface. Within the calm waters of the wreck site swim great schools of butterfly fish and sergeant majors. Because a portion of the ship extends above the surface of the water, the site is perfect for snorkeling. More Info

Dottins Reef

Just one-half mile off the coast of St. James lies what many consider to be the most beautiful reef in Barbados. The generally calm seas offer excellent 100-foot visibility, allowing divers to view gorgonians, sea fans, brain coral, basket sponges, and staghorn flourishing along the canyons and walls. Additional residents of the reef include stingrays, barracuda, grouper, parrotfish, and turtles. Initial depths are about 65 feet, although dropoffs allow depths of around 130 feet. More Info
