Explore a truly magical journey with the Barbados submarine night tour. Begin your underwater adventure as the sun sets, allowing the tour to transition from natural daylight to darkness, as our powerful lights illuminate the marine environment.
Descend into the mysterious depths, where our lights bring into focus vibrant coral reefs and reveal the hidden world of nocturnal sea life in their natural habitat.
A night dive on our submarine opens the door to an enchanted world beneath the ocean surface, where light, colour, and sea life coordinate differently.
Experience this night ride up to 150 feet beneath the sea in our safe and sustainable submarine!
The ocean's a different place at night, and you experience things you simply can't see in the daytime.
Here are some reasons why you must book a submarine night tour:
As the daylight vanishes, our LED floodlights cast a spellbinding glaze over the reef, making its textures and vibrant colours seem all the more prominent. The contrasting light and dark come alive on the 'stage of corals' in a theatrical way.
Most are hidden during the day but emerge to play at night. Though illusive, be on the lookout for spotting lobsters, sea urchins, and even night-time hunters like moray eels and reef sharks as they make their rounds by sundown.
Our environmentally friendly, high-powered lights bring out glowing colours hidden under the daylight. Coral glows, fish glitter, and the atmosphere become dreamlike, which will be cherished by photographers and videographers.
Those who seek something extraordinary will experience the unusual rush of penetrating a secret marine world. We ensure safety and an unforgettable night dive experience from the confines of a state-of-the-art submarine.
There's something incredibly magical and romantic about exploring the deep blue sea under the stars. The quiet plunge and mystical scenery create a night out to cherish, especially for couples in Barbados.
Capture the brilliant underwater landscapes that are unmatched by any holiday memory. From unusual-looking fish like the basket star to colours enhanced by the lights, the view is nothing less than breathtaking, especially for night photographers.(do not use your flash through the viewports as it reflects and will ruin your shot).
Get ready for a thrilling underwater adventure on our air-conditioned, non-pressurised submarine, which is maintained at sea level pressure and is customised for safety and marvel. Different fish than during the day trips, and sometimes that last feeding frenzy before the fish “head in” for the night.
Gently descend to depths up to 150 feet below the sea off Barbados' west coast. This is deep enough to observe both coral creatures and life deeper in the water.
Underwater animals come from the shadows into the light. The very same reef you may explore during the day becomes a new experience, more colourful, mystical, and alive with activity during the transition between day and night.
Relax and enjoy breathtaking views through expansive windows while seated comfortably. The cabin is air-conditioned, quiet, and perfect for travellers of all ages, including children over 3 feet tall.
Our seasoned crew provides lively commentary on your tour, pointing out strange sea creatures, coral facts, and shipwreck stories to ensure an enjoyable experience.
As the Caribbean sunsets, one of Barbados' most enchanting experiences is this submarine night dive:
Plan your dive before dinner and let it pave the way to a truly magical evening. It's just the right mix of thrill and unwinding to get your night off to a great start. As you break through from 150 feet underwater, the evening is perfect for a relaxing dinner.
Skip the ordinary dinner date and impress your partner with something special: an underwater journey through a dazzling coral realm. Your partner will appreciate the dimly lit indoor ambience, informational narration, and magical scenery. It's the best experience for a romantic and intimate getaway.
Night dives take place only on designated nights and are extremely popular in peak seasons. Every dive at sunset accommodates a limited number of seats for ultimate comfort. Seats are booked fast, especially during holidays, festivals, or cruise ship departures. Make an early reservation that best fits your itinerary and dining reservations.
Some of the sea life doesn't appear until nighttime. You can spot carnivorous lionfish emerging from crevices, lobsters moving freely along the reef, or octopuses shifting colour as they glide by the windows on the submarine. Though quite illusive, these are normally not spotted on day cruises.
As the submarine's LED floodlights are turned on, they illuminate a reef that you may have never witnessed. Colours explode in ways that are impossible in sunlight. Shadows cascade over the ocean floor, infusing the whole picture with a movie-like atmosphere.
The peacefulness of the sea at night is incomparable. Dim interior lights inside the submarine give a calming ambience, with expert commentary softly guiding your attention to sea features.
This is one of only a handful of nighttime submarine tours in the world and the only one in the Caribbean. With limited size, every sailing feels like a one-of-a-kind experience.
Departure times are scheduled throughout the year to enable visitors to witness the reef as it transitions from dusk to darkness. Exact times are given at booking confirmation.
