This afternoon trip takes you deeper underground, as you explore one of the Seven Wonders of Barbados. You’ll travel by solar-powered trams through Harrison’s Cave, a gigantic limestone underworld. You won’t miss out on the sights, as orange mood-lighting illuminates the labyrinth of spiky stalactites and stalagmites, cascading water, sparkling streams and deep pools. You’ll glide through the cave for a mile, stopping occasionally for the obligatory photo. And, you can get up close to the cave’s interior, as you explore a section on foot. You’ll wave goodbye to the narrow passages as you reach the highlight of the tour, the Great Hall. It’s as impressive as it sounds – a 100-feet-high chamber, complete with tumbling waterfall. Back above ground, keep an eye out for monkeys as they’re often spotted playing in the trees outside the cave.

Atlantis Submarines Night Dive Description
Are you looking for something unique to do after sunset? Experience another side of Barbados’ night life in a very different manner. There is only one other place in the world that Atlantis Submarine Night Tours can be experienced, making it truly unique. After a 15 boat ride out to the dive site and a brief transfer to the submarine, the hatched are secured and the dive begins. Only natural daylight is initially used but as it gets dark during the dive, the lights are switched on, revealing a very different perspective of the coral reef. This allows you to experience the best of both worlds - day and night. Predators and reef fish are a bit fewer in number than during the day but this is a more romantic and awe-inspiring experience than the day tour. The night dive is concluded by a brief cocktail reception where there is an opportunity to meet the submarine crew.
