Barbados pics...finally. Visibility was not great there was quite a bit of silt stirred up. The first dive was a reef and the second a sandy bay that had three wrecks in it.




This is a fish trap, they said it has to be emptied every couple of days or eels get in and eat the fish.


Eel in it.

Those ARE amazing. WOW.

Do you know anything about the wrecks? Ie., what ships were they and when were they sunk? The steel one doesn't really look that old to me. I assume the cannons are from something WAY older.

And .. oh .. said it before but man the gorgonian diversity is amazing, love those seafans and seawhips. The brains too. Those Diploria brains look like ... well, real brains. It's too bad we can get frags of those in the hobby. Oh well, it's probably better that they be protected like that.

I'm not sure about the bay it's just down from the ship terminal. The 3 ships have only been there 5 years or so I would guess, they also had some things for snorkelers to check out in a bit shallower water. They just scattered some anchors and other stuff like the cannon in the bay to make a boring sandy bay into a interesting snorkeling/dive location loaded with life and fish.

Here are two shots before the second dive (nice and sunny), the two after the 60 minute dive (rainy) and some snorkelers arrived in that time.
