What Divers Are Saying

5 star ratingTop Diving in Barbados Went with Barbados Blue for 3 two tank dives (6 in total). Absolutely suberb dives, wonderful staff who were very helpful at all times. Great safety briefs before each dive and amazing fish and wrecks. Even saw 10 Eagle Rays circle us twice. If you fancy diving in Barbados, there is only one to choose - Barbados Blue.

5 star ratingGreat Two Dives Had a great two tank dive with Barbados Blue. Lovely reef dive where we saw a Hawksbill Turtle and various types of ray. Then did a wreck dive in Carlisle Bay where we dived inside the wreck - a new experience for me, which was great.

Amy and Mia were lovely dive masters, and both staff and other divers were super friendly, great for solo divers too.

Thanks to the team!

5 star ratingA great experience I did the Advanced Open Water Diving course with Mia at Barbados Blue (after having done the Open Water Diving there a year before). All the staff are great, knowledgeable and very friendly, but Mia was an exceptionally good instructor. Highly recommend them, for both training and recreational dives.

5 star ratingPrivate family beginning diver charter Our family has a mix of experienced scuba divers from advanced to first timer and we booked a private charter for the day while in port on an NCL cruise. The instructions on how to get to the shop was very easy to follow and everything was as advertised and on time. The instructor Nichole was experienced, easy to work with and professional. The dive was nearby and awesome with several shipwrecks. We liked the private trip as we could go at our own pace with our kids 13, 13, and 16. We even were able to enjoy lots of snacks, drinks and tried our first Roti! We absolutely would book with them again!

5 star ratingLet me dive my profile but keep me safe. I do two trips a year for 28 days to the Caribbean for diving. It’s a passion of mine. I started with a 10 dive package on March 23 and have added 2 more diving every day 2tanks on NITROX. Barbados Blue has been more than accommodating, asking what dives site I’d like to go to taking their time on dives so I can take pictures and pretty much allowing me to dive my own profile. There dive masters are all professional and personable, watching over the divers they are leading, pointing out animals we might miss and making sure to keep an eye on me so I don’t have to navigate without hovering over me. I always feel safe. I finish my 3rd 10 dive package tomorrow and will book the 4th one. The crew and office staff have become friends.

5 star ratingGreat dives and dive shop! My wife and I had a great two tank dive with Barbados Blue. It was our second time diving with them (previously dove in 2023) and were very pleased with all aspects of the experience as we had been in 2023.

They are professional, competent, fun and focused on making a great experience for the divers while ensuring safety. So glad we dove with them again and look forward to another dive next time we are on the island.

1 star ratingDon't care about your safety, only your $$$ They don't care about safety with such a restrictive cancellation policy. Got sick and tried to get in touch with them and they would not respond until after the appointment. Guess they want you to dive sick or lose the money you pay upfront. They were very responsive before they got my money, but afterward you can't get ahold of them. BAD business practice in a sport that requires safety at the highest.

1 star ratingNon-responsive We attempted to contact this company for two days prior to our scheduled excursion because we needed to cancel due to illness (which it is dangerous to dive sick). Unfortunately, we did not receive any response during that time. It was only after the excursion time had passed that we finally heard back — at which point we were told it was too late for a refund.

We made every effort to reach out in advance, and the lack of communication was extremely disappointing. It felt as though once payment was received, customer service became a low priority.

We understand cancellation policies, but timely communication matters.
