This
new Stingray City Tour is not offered through the Curise Ships
and we Stop there in between the ship excursions to keep the
numbers in the Park small. Here is some info: The
Extreme Circumnav - Using our 45 ft offshore racing boat,
specifically designed for our excursion.
Eli Fuller of Adventure Antigua has finally come up with
another Adventure to match his wildly popular Eco-Tour. You
have probably heard all about the Eco-Tour which was designed
to be a re-creation of Eli's childhood days, spent exploring
the secret spots of the North Sound. This new Xtreme tour
takes adventurers right around Antigua's rugged, 365 beach
coastline with an Exclusive stop at the Stingray City Marine
Park!
The main highlights of this Xtreme adventure, making it totally
unique, are the high speed Miami Vice style run, through the
amazing islands of the north sound with its myriad coral reefs,
the Stingray City Marine Park swim where you can have your
picture taken actually holding one of these ancient and beautiful
fish; the Robinson Crusoe style, buffet lunch at Green Island
with your toes in the water; the tour of Nelson's Dockyard
with your own on-board local historian; the guided snorkel
trip at the awesome Pillars of Hercules with its volcanic
boulders below the surface, and the swim and beach combing
at the extremely secluded and beautiful Rendezvous Bay. This
tour is done within the same timeframe as the Eco-Tour, and
we manage to do this because our newest boat is FAST. Between
stops our new boat will race you past the beaches and shores
of Antigua so you'd better be a quick counter to get the 365!
There are however a few things you have to keep in mind before
you decide to go on this tour because, like the Eco-Tour,
this tour is not for everyone.
1) The boat is a high performance 45-foot power boat using
three, eco-friendly, 225hp Four Stroke Yamaha engines that
sip fuel. Top cruise speed is an exhilarating 40 MPH which
we will be doing passing the islands of the North Sound. If
you "feel the need for speed" then this will be
your favorite part of the trip! But if high speed thrills
have never been your thing, then you would definitely be happier
on the slower paced Eco-Tour.
2) Although the boat has been designed for offshore racing,
the 5 mile run from Stingray City to our Lunch Spot on the
North of Green Island could be a little "bumpy"
for some. This tour is not recommended if you are preganant.
Also, if you dislike wild, amusement park rides then again,
this tour isn't for you. However, if you are the extreme kind
of person who likes some excitement and wants to experience
what an offshore powerboat race feels like then the spray
of this wild, open water section will keep you smiling.
3) This tour has some really great spots to stop along the
day, but it is not all about snorkeling and beaching. We will
have 2 stops for snorkeling including the Stingray City stop,
but if all you want to do is snorkel, then another tour will
be your best bet.
4) This isn't the booze cruise your parents did in the "good
old days". If you are" young at heart" (and
not "faint of heart") it could just be the thrill
of a lifetime but you need to understand that the Xtreme tour
has been designed for people who are fit and are leading an
active lifestyle.
So if you are up for some extreme action and are loving the
idea of getting into the water with dozens of very friendly
rays (they will come up and touch you!!), and if the image
of that 40mph burst past the islands of the North Sound, and
the adventurous ride in the Atlantic - if all this turns you
on… then you are an ideal candidate for the Xtreme adventure!
….. And speaking about booze, we do serve our famous
Eco-Tour rum punch, but only at the end of the tour when the
adventure is drawing to a close.
Our new Xtreme adventure is unbeatable as a way to see the
coastline of our beautiful island and it could definitely
be the most fun you have ever had on a holiday excursion.
Price: $170 USD per person including park fees, snorkeling gear, food
and drinks.
