Walking in St. John's, Antigua - What to do on Your Day in Port
This is a quick video of our walk through the port of St. John's, Antigua. We were on a 7 day Southern Caribbean cruise on Royal Caribbean's Adventure of the Seas. Antigua is a beautiful island. In this video we walk up to St. John's Cathedral also known as the St. John the Divine, the Cathedral Church of the Diocese of North Eastern Caribbean and Aruba. It is an Anglican church perched on a hilltop in St. John's, Antigua and Barbuda. The present cathedral with its imposing white twin towers was built on a fossilized reef, in 1845, and is now in its third incarnation, as earthquakes in 1683 and in 1745 destroyed the previous structures. The iron gates on the south face of the church are flanked by pillars displaying lead Biblical figures of St John the Divine and St John the Baptist. They were taken by HMS Temple in 1756, from a French ship destined for Martinique.
Antigua is one of the 2 major islands that make up the Caribbean nation of Antigua and Barbuda. Ringed with coral reefs, the island is known for its many sandy beaches. Set along English Harbour, restored Nelson’s Dockyard, which Admiral Horatio Nelson made his base in the 1780s, includes a marina and the Dockyard Museum. Trails lead up to Shirley Heights, a former military lookout with panoramic views.
Day 3 aboard Adventure of the Seas in Antigua (Jolly Beach Antigua) St. Johns
Our third day aboard the Adventure of the Seas was in Antigua. We were planning on traveling to Valley Church Beach but were persuaded to go to Jolly Harbor Beach by our taxi driver. This beach has nice turquoise water but it was a little murky from the sand being turned up. This beach did have WiFi which was a bonus.

Antigua Tour, just what is there on Antigua
The normal tour from local taxi's is the Cricket stadium, from the outside, the derelict and closed sugar refinery, a distant view of Nelson's Dockyard unless you stipulate it, and maybe a beach. See the film.
We have a other films, how to get to Nelson's Dockyard for £2US and then walk to the beach, or Jolly Harbour by public bus. It is easy and you are unlikely to be the only one on the bus from your ship.

St John's Antigua Cruise Port Tour (4K)
Tour the Antigua Cruise Port Terminal area at St John's. We were on the MSC Divina cruise ship docked at the Heritage Quay terminal along with the Royal Caribbean Jewel of the Seas. If you are looking for things to do other than shopping- we took a short taxi ride to visit the nearby Fort James beach (see our video here: ), then walked around the port area, which included the historic Redcliff Quay Cruise Pier where the Seven Seas Explorer and the Pullmantur Zenith were docked.
There are plenty of nice views out towards the cruise ships. It is also a lively scene with local Antiguan performers singing, dancing, and even doing the Limbo while on fire, and spitting fire, lol.
There were a ton of shops & restaurants/bars at port including Diamonds International (surprise suprise), Fred's Belgian Waffles & Ice Cream, Big Banana, St Johns Antigua Harbour View Bar & Cafe plus much more. There was even a casino (King's Casino).
As an added bonus, we included our cruise ship sail-away from Antigua video- enjoy!
This was from our December 2017 cruise aboard the MSC Divina.

The pics came out amazing and we are waiting for the final video cut. Thanks to our awesome drivers Trevor, Collin and Bruce.

The Real Antigua And Barbuda | Antigua Island Safari Tour | Caribbean Travel Vlog
Antigua and Barbuda have had a pretty rough past! Known for their Caribbean beauty, this Island Safari Tour showed us the real...⬇ More Below ✈ Our 220 page guide on how to travel non-stop —
Antigua and Barbuda have sadly both experienced some tough circumstances over the years, but these little Caribbean beauties continue to pull tourists to the amazing beaches, food and people each year. We decided to take an island safari tour around Antigua to get a real feel for what Antigua is like outside of the tourist resorts.
Barbuda wasn't on our itinerary this time, but hopefully on our next visit to the Caribbean we will get the chance to also tour around Barbuda safari style to scope out how the island is/has recovered.
Thats a wrap on our Caribbean travel vlogs, this time in Antigua has been exactly what we needed... an eye opening experience, a luxury state and a chilled vibe. We've got nothing but love for the island and everyone we had the pleasure of meeting.

Antigua Zipline - All 13 Lines - Royal Caribbean Excursion
We took a Royal Caribbean cruise in January 2019 with the entire family (12 of us). 7 of us did the Antigua Canopy Tour through the cruise line as a shore excursion. This excursion was 1.5 hours once we had the gear on. The drive time was between 30-60 mins to get there and back. I edited down all the waiting at the lines. This zipline was much harder than the others we have done because you use your hand to slow and control yourself from spinning. We all enjoyed this one and would do it again.
As a side note this is my first real video that I have put together so please let me know what you think and hit like if you enjoyed it.
