Antigua
is one of the few islands where a circumnavigation
tour is not just a tour around the island..
but, an event on its own. This is because
of its indented coastline, which offers
an exciting sail while learning about
dozens of historical sights and landmarks
such as: Long Island, Devil's Bridge,
Pillars of Hercules, and Nelson's Dockyard.
This tour starts on the western coast,
making its way north to Green Island
- which is the largest uninhabited island
in the North Sound National Park. On
our way there, the Captain's commentary
will include information on the Prickly
Pear Island, Long Island, Devil's Bridge
and several other interesting landmarks.
The sheer beauty of this magnificent
Park will be one of the crowning moments
in this tour.
Green Island offers great snorkeling
in shallow waters. Here you'll be sure
to see some spectacular displays of
marine life, and there is a possibility
of you seeing the beautiful hawksbill
turtle.
Enjoy a swim or just relax on the beach
before indulging in a delicious feast
of Caribbean cuisine. After lunch, the
tour continues around the east south-eastern
coastline for a scenic sea tour of spectacular
Nelson's Dockyard. On leaving the dockyard,
you will cruise down the southern coastline
where you will view the natural green,
volcanic landscape of southern Antigua,
broken only by beautiful white, sandy
beaches.
Enjoy a laugh and meet new friends,
while the crew joins you in a grand
party on the way back to your hotel!
