Dive-site story
Carlisle Bay Marine Park sits just off the coast of Bridgetown, featuring a sheltered bay with a collection of deliberate and historic shipwrecks resting on white sand. The wrecks, including the Berwyn, Bajan Queen, Ce-Trek, and Eilon, act as thriving artificial reefs that attract dense schools of fish, marine turtles, and macro life. Calm conditions and shallow profiles allow divers and snorkelers to navigate multiple hulls in a single immersion.
Cluster of six wrecks positioned close together on a sandy seabed
Frequent encounters with resident green and hawksbill sea turtles
Abundant macro critters hiding within encrusted ship hulls and anchor chains
Location
Use the map to plan with your operator and confirm the exact entry point on the day.
