With the rich and diversified underwater flora and fauna and the huge collection of shipwrecks lying on the deep, it is no wonder that diving and snorkeling are two of Barbuda main sports.

Around Barbuda, conditions are exceptional for diving and snokeling: the fauna and flora is not so deep, there are few or no currents, and there is great visibility underwater. In addition, the water is warm, approximately 80 F.

There are some companies in Barbuda that will take you to the ideal spots and that will rent you the adequate equipment for diving and snorkeling. Some will even facilitate underwater filming and photographing. You can look for a dive operator at Antigua Dive Operators Association website located at http://divetravel.netfirms.com/. You can e mail from their site letting them know your needs for under water exploration in Barbuda.
