About this site
Trident is a wreck dive in Carlisle Bay, off Barbados. The former flagship of the Barbados coast guard, it was deliberately sunk to form an artificial reef. A gun mounted at the bow makes a popular photograph, the hull has swim-throughs, and divers with wreck experience find it easy to penetrate.
Maximum depth is approximately 20 to 26 metres (65 to 85 feet), and the dive is graded intermediate. Reef fish and lobsters make use of the structure, and there is an elevated chance of large tarpon, snappers and barracuda around the wreck.
