Divi Resorts Announces Summer Accommodation Programme for Families

Divi Resorts has initiated a limited-time summer promotion across its Caribbean properties, including its Barbados locations, allowing children to stay and eat without additional charges. This seasonal offer applies to both all-inclusive packages and standard bed-and-breakfast reservations booked prior to 29 April 2026. Families planning a summer itinerary will find this logistical advantage particularly useful when managing travel budgets. The programme is designed to increase regional tourism during the traditional off-peak months, providing cost certainty for international visitors.

Families utilising this accommodation offer regularly visit the nearby Carlisle Bay Marine Park, an essential marine conservation area situated adjacent to the main harbour. The bay provides calm water conditions suitable for younger swimmers, supported by various onshore facilities. Visitors can review equipment rental locations and public restroom access in our Beach Clubs & Amenities index. Environmental protocols governing the area are strictly enforced to maintain the ecological balance.

The marine park is globally recognised for the six individual shipwrecks resting within its boundaries. The Eilon, a drug-smuggling freighter, was submerged in 1996 to alleviate pressure on the natural coral reefs. Do not stand on the coral formations. The structural integrity of the Ce-Trek, positioned at a 12-metre depth, provides a measurable environment for advanced divers. Use biodegradable sun protection. The shallower wrecks, such as the Berwyn at seven metres, cater specifically to novice snorkellers and younger tourists. Never touch the sea turtles. The Bajan Queen rests near the centre of the reserve, hosting a dense population of indigenous sponge species. Observe all posted safety signage.

For families requiring a structured marine experience, the Barbados Snorkeling and Sailing Adventure for Small Groups offers a supervised environment with professional guides. This ensures adherence to the park’s strict Conservation & Environment policies. Tourists interested in further marine education can also visit the Folkestone Marine Park located further up the western coast, which operates a dedicated museum and visitor centre detailing the island’s aquatic ecosystems.
