Bike through St. John’s, kayak a mangrove lagoon, swim at a local beach, and walk to Fort James on Antigua’s active small-group tour.

Unfortunately, due to low water, we were unable to do the kayak portion of the tour, but Giles was up front about the issue (definitely not his fault) and extended our bike, walk and beach stay to offset it.
