Barbados

Going to Barbados for the first time in March. Has anyone been there
recently? I would appreciate any recommendations on:

1) Dive operators (small groups, requested sites, etc.)
2) Dive sites (reefs or wrecks)

Thanks

I dived with Haroon at The Dive Shop. Trip report on my website. It was a
while ago, but there's also a link there to a friend's more recent report.

The must do dive is the Stavronikita, but it's quite deep at around 130ft
to the bottom. The shallowest dive they do on it normally takes you to
100ft and around the decks.

Thanks Jason. Your site was very helpful. Since I will be staying on the
south end of the island as well, I will probably check out The Dive Shop.
Great job on your site as well. I envy you for all the great places you
have been. If you ever end up coming back to the Caribbean, let me know I
have gone to many of the islands. Just as a note, your link to "Keith
Sabine's 2002 trip report" doesn't work any more. Thanks again.

Thanks. I fixed the link to Keith's report if you want to have a look at
that too.

My next Caribbean trip is later this year. We're doing a twin centre trip
to Antigua and St Kitts.
