Antiguan Posted January 7, 2009 #2 Share Posted January 7, 2009 something with sun sea and sand. it's hard not to have a good time, but do something where you avoid being in a place with many other people. there is enough room on anitgua to have some peace and quiet.

Miss Vickie Posted January 7, 2009 #3 Share Posted January 7, 2009 THE thing to do is one of Eli's tours - either the EcoTour, or Xtreme Circumnav. They are our all time favorite excursions, and we've done a lot of stuff on a lot of different islands. www.adventureantigua.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruzin girl Posted January 8, 2009 #4 Share Posted January 8, 2009 We tried to sign up for this tour but was turned away because Princess was in port from 7-4 and said that there was not enough time. I was really looking forward to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bungieantigua Posted January 8, 2009 #5 Share Posted January 8, 2009 I here really good things about Eli's tour but i Still havnt done it! Failing that we have done sting ray city a few times and it realy is good, but you want to do it when its not too busy, my other choice would be helicopter ride to montserrette its expensive but one of the best experiences of my life i have done it twice its so good.

woodofpine Posted January 9, 2009 #6 Share Posted January 9, 2009 I'm very fond of Antigua; it has some very nice beaches. But - IMHO Nelson's Dockyard at English Harbor is what distinguishes Antigua from the other beach laden islands of the Antilles chain. I think it is the only UNESCO World Heritage site in the Antilles. If you absolutely LOATH anything historical then - OK - not for you. But if you've any interest at all in the history of naval power and ships at sea it is a neat visit. Plus the historic Admiral's Inn or Copper and Lumber Store hotels on site are nice places to just chill out breifly. From there, adjacent Shirley Heights lookout is a great visit http://www.shirleyheightslookout.com Doing the foregoing then hitting one of Anitgua's better beaches on your return to St. Johns (either Half Moon Bay to the east or Curtain Bluff, Turners, or Darkwood to the west) for an hour or two makes a very complete day.

IHATESNOW Posted January 9, 2009 #7 Share Posted January 9, 2009 What is THE thing to do in Antigua, like the must do activity?? We're up for anything! With a name like Beachbum and a plethora of beaches to choose from, I'd say the beach would be your best bet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Hen Mom Posted January 11, 2009 #8 Share Posted January 11, 2009 We are a family of five doing the southern carribean in march. Is there taxis at the port to take you to half moon bay? How much does a taxi ride cost and what is the fee to get in to half moon bay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope it as good as all the hype on these boards. I have a feeling it will be even better than eveyone says it is! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
