Barbados, Caribbean
Caribbean scuba diving holidays to Barbados offer learn to dive courses, choice of luxury hotels and beautiful sandy beaches. Warm water, excellent choice of restaurants and range of activities, make Barbados a good choice particularly for the inexperienced diver to gain confidence. The most easterly of the Caribbean Islands, Barbados is regarded as the gateway to the West Indies. Its British colonial past is visible in the plantation houses around the island. The north has a choice of luxury hotels with the south more traditional, family run and boutique hotels and villas.
Diving
Barbados diving is relaxed both above the water and below. There are around 24 dive sites to visit, with many easy to access small reefs and wrecks. 16 sites are based around the Christchurch area accessed from Carliyse Bay just south of the main downtown to Oistins on the very southern part of Barbados. Carlyse Bay is a great place to start and a designated Marine Park. There are 6 shipwrecks within 10 minutes from the sandy shore and accessible for all levels. Beginners can gain experience in sheltered conditions with little to no current. Choose between larger dive centres offering larger boats with both learn to dive programmes and advanced divers heading out together to smaller, more personal dive shops who will tailor programmes to your needs.

Culture and Activities
It's all about beach life in Barbados. You can take your pick from windsurfing, kitesurfing, surfing or stand up paddleboarding. If the mood takes you, there are an array of companies offering jet ski, banana boat rides and paragliding all round the island. Or take a paddle boarding tour off picturesque Carlise Bay with Jason and his crew. It's worth hiring a car and heading up the West coast to the St James area if you want to splash the cash in the designer boutiques and a la carte restaurants. More locally, enjoy the bars and eateries at the St Lawrence Gap in the south Christchurch area overlooking the picturesque Dover beach. At dusk, the fish market in Oistins is the place to be, with the days catch cooked to order, reggae music blaring, Rum Punch flowing and everyone joins the 'jump up' for the all night street party.
