Prepare to be amazed by the incredible sights awaiting you on this Barbados submarine day tour:
The Barbados reef bursts with a vibrant palette of marine life—from the shimmering silver sides, to the predatory horse-eyed jack, graceful angelfish and colourful parrotfish, and the occasional sleek barracuda gliding by. Watch as delicate coral fans sway gently in the current, creating a mesmerising underwater dance in perfect harmony.
You may have a hawksbill sea turtle swim by your window or catch a glimpse of a stingray resting on the seafloor. The submarine's big windows offer unobstructed viewing of the surrounding environment.
Experience the majestically beautiful “Lord Willoughby” shipwreck, an authentic, coral-covered vessel. The shipwreck sits at a depth of 120 feet, a depth that’s usually reserved for experienced divers; However, you can witness it in absolute comfort and safety.
Very few people ever descend this deep into the ocean, and even fewer get to do it while seated in air-conditioned comfort. You can reach depths up to 150 feet, all while surrounded by marine life and narrated commentary that brings the experience to life.
This experience is designed to be inclusive, and adaptable for all types of adventurers, like:
If you're short on time, this is your fantasy trip. There are multiple daily departures from a convenient location close to Bridgetown Port. This is one of the most convenient Barbados day tours, especially for cruise travellers.
The Atlantis Barbados submarine day tour is a surprising romantic escapade for couples to explore the ‘depths’ of their love. Slide hand in hand through coral gardens, bask in the pale blue colour of filtered sunlight, and feel the serenity of the sea.
This is one of the most popular and safe activities for children. The ride is wholly guided and thrilling but not frightening. Children love the experience, while adults enjoy the freedom of exploring the deep without exerting their bodies.
In an hour and 45 minutes, this submarine excursion gives you a good picture of the centre of Barbados' aquatic life. You will still have time left over for lunch, beach walks, or souvenir shopping in historic Bridgetown.
Visitors during the peak season from November to April find Barbados welcoming a huge number of cruise ships. During this time, the Atlantis Submarine Day Dive is one of the most sought-after on a passenger's itinerary. It pays to book ahead.
You don’t require swimwear or beach attire. The submarine is fully air-conditioned, so dress lightly and carry a light jacket if you are sensitive to cooler air-conditioned temperatures inside.
You'll be taking a transfer boat ride and climbing 11 ladder-style steps before stepping into the submarine. So, wear comfortable footwear.
You'll enjoy a stunning parade of marine species gliding past your window. Snap all the photographs you desire, but turn off your flash to avoid reflecting off the window as well as frightening the marine creatures.
While the submarine tour is smooth and indoors, we suggest you drink water before the tour. Food and drinks are not permitted on board for a clean and comfortable ride for everyone.
Start the day with an enchanting tour of Harrison's Cave. Witness the crystallised limestone caverns and breathtaking waterfalls. Then, take your underwater journey on the Atlantis Submarine.
Moreover, the submarine is designed to have a minimal environmental footprint. It glides smoothly over delicate coral reefs without harming the underwater species or disturbing marine ecosystems. Such characteristics make it a sustainable choice for eco-conscious travellers.
If you want to enjoy the full sensory experience, book priority seats behind the submarine pilot. They offer the best panoramic views but are limited in numbers.
