Atlantis Submarine Expedition Tour

Bridgetown, Barbados

Come experience the adventure of a lifetime on board the Atlantis Submarine! Your adventure begins at the Shallow Draught where you will have time to browse for souvenirs or enjoy a cool drink and snack at Cafe Sublime. Your quest begins when you board the shuttle vessel "Ocean Quest" as you sit back and enjoy the seven-minute scenic cruise to the Atlantis Submarine as the Atlantis crew gives an informative talk.

Once arriving at the dive site, you are treated to the sight of the Submarine surfacing. Then you will make the easy transfer from the Ocean Quest to the Atlantis. On board the vessel you are seated in spacious, air-conditioned comfort as your incredible underwater experience begins.

First the submarine will dive to 55 feet (17 meters) to view the beautiful coral reef and the abundance of marine life, including spectacular coral, sponge, and colorful fish through large, clear viewing windows. The 40-minute underwater journey is narrated by a knowledgeable co-pilot who will point out and explain the amazing sea life as well as give a history of Atlantis and the submarine itself. Before returning to the surface, the submarine descends to depths of 115 to 150 feet (35 - 45 meters) to view what has in the past been reserved for scuba divers only - a sunken shipwreck!

After resurfacing, you are transferred back onboard the Ocean Quest for the return to Shallow Draught. All adult tickets include a complimentary drink!

The Atlantis submarine is the first attraction in the Caribbean to receive the double award from Green Certification in alliance with the Green Globe International.

Our tour was booked for 11 am, but when we rang to confirm we were told that the 11am slot was booked out for two months and we had a choice of 10 am or 12 am, but we were not told this at the time of booking or afterwards. The trip itself was very entertaining, Neville was the member of the crew who gave us a safety talk and he was hilarious. We were a bit diappointed with the number of fish we saw and the coral isn't anywhere as near as colourful as in the brochure, but it was a great experience and we would do it again.

Excellent trip - does exactly what it said on the tin!

The tour guides were very good and the submarine was very nice and clean; however, my husband and I thought we would see more animal life than we did. We saw some fish but not any sea turtles or octopus'. Maybe our expectation was misaligned; it was just ok for us.

they could not have done it better. Not claustraphobic and air con kept us cool. Shoals of fish close up were amazing. good banter from crew made tour fly by.

Having just gone SCUBA diving I was probably hoping for more, but I did really enjoy the trip and it was definitely worth doing. I was a little put off though by the taxi situation. When I booked through VIATOR my voucher included a section stating that transportation to and from mt hotel was included. When my fiance and I arrived at the shop to check in they wanted me to pay for the trip - an extra $30 barbadian. Not a huge expense, but something I had already taken care of. I brought this to their attention and it was ultimately taken care of after a few words, but just be mindful of things like this be it here or anywhere in Barbados - tour companies have a way of screwing you over unless you're careful.

It was more than I expected. Great crew on top of the water as well as below.

What an amazing time we had. It was a wonderful experience and the staff could not do enough for us. You can not go to Barbados and not go on the Atlantis Submarine trip. Highly recommend this to all ages.

Thoroughly enjoyable experience. The tour guides were very knowledgeable and very friendly. They made sure the children on board were actively involved with searching for marine life. We were not squished inside the submarine. The pilot made sure that the views were seen by both sides of the vessel. Got to see a giant female turtle on the reef. Very exciting.

Time swam by and so definitely not the lowest point in our trip.

Review by: Angelique L, United Kingdom	July 2009
The sub should not go down if it's a cloudy day as you could not see much. Also, the so-called free pickup was not free, and we had to pay 15 each for a ride that could have cost 1.50. It was advertised as an hour and a half, but we were only submerged for 45 minutes.

Website needs very close watch due to stated schedule, such as a 1400 hrs departure when in fact this time has been cancelled. I was told of cancellation a week before trip, but found that it was still on the website. Also, taxi from hotel was sent twice because booking was recorded for two different days. The sub trip was fun. Thanks.

Review by: Carol K, United Kingdom	March 2009
This was amazing. Well organised, well run and a great experience. We dived to 145 feet and saw a shipwreck and many types of fish and coral. The only downside was that when I booked with Viator the cost of the trip was advertised as including free round trip transport from the hotel during March. When I arrived at the submarine office I was charged for the cost of transport and had to pay B15. This was annoying and put a slight blight on what was a great day.

Unique experience.

Review by: Jennifer P, United States of America	November 2008
Such an amazing experience! The submarine was surprisingly comfortable inside.

Review by: Michael G, United Kingdom	June 2008
This trip was as good as you would expect without any feeling of claustrophobia, which was my concern. There was plenty of room aboard, plus it was well air conditioned and well lit. The only problem was that I could have stayed down there all day!

Review by: Virginia M, United States of America	February 2008
Very well done, each person got a free picture and certificate as well as beverages. Much to see under the ocean and transportation was included.

Review by: Bhavesh S, United States of America	May 2007
You should be careful if you suffer from motion sickness or claustrophobia - while the submarine ride is smooth, it can be claustrophobic. Getting to the submarine by boat can be rough if the sea is choppy. Otherwise, this is definitely a fun and novel experience.
