Where to dive ?

We are two certified divers going to be on the Celebrity Summit next week stopping in Barbados, St Lucia, Antigua, St Marteen & St Thomas.

 

Usually we dive in St Lucia & St Thomas, but Im asking for help in deciding if it is worth trying a dive in Barbados & Antigua or St Marteen instead, just for a change.

 

Is there any good diving in ANtigua, Barbados or St Marteen or will we be sorely disappointed if we dont stick with St Lucia & St Thomas ? Its just that there is so much else to do there that we always miss, I thought perhaps we should shake up our routine.

 

Thanks in advance for any experiences, advice or recommendations you have.

Speaking for myself, I've been to St. Thomas enough that it has become an "always dive" port for me, as I can't think of anything I'd rather do on St. Thomas (shopping is not for me).

 

St. Lucia is also an "always dive" port - I've only been there once previously, but the two dives we did there were fantastic!

 

St. Maarten is OK, but we are trying a shark dive next through Ocean Explorers Dive Center.

 

I've heard good things about Barbados, but haven't tried yet. Haven't heard enough (good or bad) about Antigua. Hope this helps a little!

I would dive in Barbados. They have many nice sites and the viz has always been good for me. I would skip St. Maarten/Antigua not great sites at either location imo. St. Thomas/St. Lucia I always dive lots of great sites to see if you get away from the cruise ship and book on your own.
