Barbados Turtle Swim and Shipwreck Tour

My wife and I took this tour on a recent trip to Barbados and loved it! We were picked up and dropped off at our Airbnb, so did not have to worry at all about transportation, and we were treated to an incredible private snorkeling experience. Would highly recommend to anyone visiting Barbados!

Appreciated the help they offered to older, novice snorkelers and enjoyed two areas with turtles and one with a ship wreck and lots of colorful fish. No directions for pick-up from the cruise terminal were provided and we had to ask lots of questions and make phone calls to get our ride.

I took this tour with my sister and my two kids ages 10 and 12. We were passengers on the Anthem of the Seas and decided to do this tour on our own instead of purchasing what the cruise line was selling. We were very glad we did. The tour operators were awesome! They got us set up with all the necessary snorkeling gear then it was just a short boat ride out to the snorkeling sites. We snorkeled at 2 shipwrecks that housed quite a number of tropical fish. My sister had a Go Pro camera and the snorkeling guide dove down with her camera and got some great footage in and around the shipwrecks for her. He was also very knowledgeable about the shipwrecks, the island and it's history. The guide was also great with my daughter who was a little timid. He gave her his boogie board to hold on to. We only got to see a couple of turtles but after seeing how aggressive some of the other snorkelers were, I can understand why they don't stick around for too long. Message to all snorkelers: Please be respectful of the marine life and don't chase after them or stick your cameras in their faces. The tour operator provided us with refreshments for the boat ride back and a place for us to change out of our swimsuits. I highly recommend this tour for those who want a quality experience without the cruise ship crowds.

Super friendly and accommodating crew. Thanks to Ashley and Kevin for a great time. We did our trip on Wednesday, February 21st. Very small group so we all got the help and attention we needed. I'd use them again for sure.

Our tour was amazing! We had the boat to ourselves along with the tour guide Ashley who was very knowledgeable and super friendly and our boat captain. They took us to 3 wrecks where we saw all kind of different fish and sea life. We also got to see a turtle upclose! I would highly recommend this tour as it was much more private then the other boats we saw out on the water which were loaded with 30 people.

We were the only two so the guys were nice and knowledgeable to area. One even pulled us around so that we didn't even have to swim as we snorkled. That said, the area where we snorkled was not great, very close to shore . OK, but not highly recommended.

Great trip and does exactly what it says it does. After a short boat trip, we visited several ship wrecks where we could snorkel. This was a particular favourite of ours and was fantastic to see old wrecks that had now coral and an array of tropical fish. Then we swam across to where the turtles were - our group came really well prepared to the other swimmers we saw as we had flippers and bait. We saw several different turtles who we watched eating on the sea floor and they also surfaced to breathe beside us. Good friendly guides and good boat.

Although we didn't see a lot of turtles or feed them it was a thoroughly relaxing day snorkeling and viewing a few turtles and other sea life our guide was quick to point out various sea creatures. They were very helpful in getting in and out of the boat as well.

What a great tour! Ashley was wonderful! He told us allabout his beautiful homeland. The sea turtles were amazing!

Sadly we didn't see any turtles because of the Hurricanes, but the snorkeling was still amazing! It was just my husband and me on the trip, so the service couldn't have been any more personal! And they even provided transportation to the hotel! Highly recommend Therapy Charters!
