Comments I had a great experience at Barbados Blue. I was traveling with my wife and young children. BB was able to let me dive with their dive master off the same boat as my wife and kids did a snorkeling trip. The dive master and I jumped off in to 80 feet of water and visited 5 wrecks. It was great to have my children see me get ready and start my dive. We all ended together at a shallow wreck in about 15 feet of water. My son dove down to give me a high five. It was a magical moment. As a disclaimer. They didn’t promise the same boat. It just turned out I was the only diver that morning and there was room on the snorke trip boat. The snorkels did two stops one with green turtle and the other at the shallow wreck. The dive was a nice safe introduction to wreck diving for me.
