What's the diving like in Barbados?

Hi everyone. What's the diving like in Barbados? I have a chance to go there, but don't know much about it. I've been diving in the the Florida Keys, Cozumel, Dominica, Bonaire, and the Cayman Islands. Wondering how Barbados compares to any of those places? I'd love to hear anyone's input. Thanks!

I used to say it isnt quite as good as Bonaire but after my last trip to Bonaire I would now say they are about par.....maybe better...with Bonaire only having the most shore dives.

You will find healthy reefs, pretty good amount and varied amount of life.

There are a couple shore dives with the best being Carlisle Bay.

Once I get to my other PC I will send you some trip reports I have done.
