Lots of great shopping at the port. Don't get in a hurry if you are an island shopper like I am you will enjoy the port area.

This will be our 6th time in Antigua - we thought we might just walk around the port area.  Is there anywhere that would be good to stop at for lunch and/or drinks?  Thanks.

Nothing of note close to the pier.

Take a short cab ride to Sheer Rocks, the food, service and views are fantastic. Book in advance.

That is a good question - first year we did a tour with Lawrence of Antigua - that was a wonderful tour.  Second time we did a boat tour which was a lot of fun - but cannot remember the name of the company.  3-4-5 we did Beach Beachlimerz - which we really loved for the first 2 times we were there.  Unfortunately our December,2022 was not quite the same, and even though it was still very nice, we decided that we wanted to try something different.  Still not sure what we will do in October.  Jan

 

Edit to add:  The boat tour was Adventure Antigua - Eli's Original Eco Tour (I don't know if they still have tours and if their tours are still the same).

Something different?
Then take a Day Bed & Plunge Pool, plus lunch, at Sheer Rocks
