About this tour

Take in the sights and sounds of Antigua by land and sea with this guided tour led by a local spearfisherman. Get the chance to snorkel with sea turtles and explore shipwrecks at Galleon Beach. This tour can accommodate all travelers, even those who do not want to snorkel. Other stops include Shirley Heights and Nelson’s Dockyard.

Highlights

  • WE TOUR Nelson's Dockyard and Shirley's Heights, finally we will be snorkeling for about an hour around a couple shipwrecks and looking for turtles, we normally always encounter them, but it depends on the visibility that day. I would say 85-90% of guests encounter turtles. If you are a decent swimmer we will also check out The Pillars Of Hercules. THIS IS NOT A BOAT TOUR! Admission to the national parks is 15$USD which gives you two tickets one for Nelson's Dockyard and one for Shirley's Heights. So to clarify you only pay one time for both parks!

Included/Excluded

  • Use of Snorkelling equipment
  • Air-conditioned vehicle
  • $15.00US admission covers both Shirley's Heights, and Nelson's Dockyard

Johnny offers an excellent service, collecting my wife and I from our hotel at Keyonna Beach Resort. On the scenic drive to the first stop at Shirley Heights, commentary was provided on the local history. Johnny was very knowedgeable and able to answer my questions about the wildlife and plants along the way. At the next stop, English Harbour, we visited a gunpowder store and sea defences. Again, Johnny provided insightful commentary and was pleased to answer questions! The final stop was where we went snorkeling. Excellent instructions were provided on how to best use the equipment and we were both very comfortable by the end of the trip. We saw shipwrecks and tracked down turtle - initially elusive, Johnny persevered and his hawk eyes spotted a little green turtle that we swam along side. This is in addition to an abundance of other tropical fish along the way! Overall, this is a must-do tour for your trip to Antigua. Johnny is a down to earth guy who provides sincere and interesting commentary on the culture and history of Antigua. He is very passionate about nature and this island, which comes through on his tour. It is unbelievable value for money and he is happy to oblige requests such as stopping off to buy souvenirs & rum, or buying local fruit. In our case we were fortunate enough to be able to book Johnny with only a couple of days notice, however if you can, I would suggest booking in good time to avoid disappointment. The easiest thing to do is send him a WhatsApp and he'll be in touch.

This was a truly unique experience. Johnny was great, it was like having a friend on the island show us around. We were able to see all the best parts of the island and snorkel with sea turtles in the same day!

Jonny put us at ease as soon as we met him. There is no way you if you had explored independently, could you have experienced or known about local culture, driven through communities without a knowledgeable guide. We covered so much in 5/6 hours without feeling rushed. The highlights were the spectacular devils bridge with its dramatic coast, the breathtaking views of Shirley heights and the snorkelling off the picturesque Galleon beach in the turquoise sea and spotting a turtle! Jonny was very obliging when it came to taking group photos, what incredible memories. Choosing this tour is a no brainer!
