Experience the very best of Antigua’s natural beauty aboard Creole Antigua Tours’ brand new 55-foot cata­ma­ran, Noemie Belle, where you can choose sun or shade on the two decks. Travel and enjoy your spe­cial day in spa­cious com­fort. The bow of the boat offers relax­ing seat­ing with bean­bags and two tram­po­lines for breezy tan­ning while dream­ing away in the Antiguan sun. In the rare event of liq­uid sun­shine, there are expan­sive shel­tered areas on deck and in the lounge space, offer­ing com­fort­able seat­ing and tables. Enjoy your day with a friendly, knowledgeable crew taking you off the beaten track to some hidden Caribbean gems.

Creole Antigua will take you to secluded islands – beautiful Bird Island and Maiden Island – where you can snorkel Antigua’s colourful coral reefs. Watch out for dol­phins, turtles and stingrays!

This relax­ing journey will show you the most beautiful sites of the northern coast of Antigua. Start your cruise from Jolly Harbour and head towards Five Islands Bay. Observe the elegant egret bird and pelicans fishing and hunting in their natural habitat. Continue the boat ride on the northwestern side past Fort James along the picturesque coast­line to Dickinson Bay – rated one of the best beaches in the Caribbean.

The journey continues to a secluded island off the northeastern coast of Antigua, Bird Island where you can snorkel in pristine clear water. Discover the island and relax, while a sumptuous local lobster lunch is freshly prepared on the beach. Enjoy the gorgeous taste of your lobster fresh out of the shell with Glen’s special home­-made old-fashioned rum punch or any drink from the bar.

If snorkelling isn’t your thing, kick your feet up with one of the crew members, explore your beautiful surroundings or enjoy a leisurely swim in the turquoise Caribbean Sea. Fresh off the grill and out of the shell, lunch on a secluded island will never taste better than this. Enjoy a delicious home-­made lunch with freshly grilled lobster along with potato/​pasta and mixed green salad, garlic bread and home-baked banana rum ­cake for dessert. (Note – During the Lobster closed season of May and June you will be served a lunch of shrimp, fish and chicken).

After lunch, either dig your feet into the sand for a bit longer or head out on a brief walk to a look­-out spot that offers a superb panoramic view of the North Sound area. From Bird Island, we will head to the ‘starfish garden’ near Maiden Island for some additional snorkelling or shallow water relaxation, where you can spot a variety of starfish.
